Jake Muggleton was announced the school’s recipient of the 2017 Caltex Best All Rounder Award.
Jake joins a select group of secondary students around Australia who have received the accolade for excellence in their studies, on the sports field and for their work in the community.
Jake was presented the award for achievement in: Academic studies, participation in school and community musical productions, public representations and participation in musical groups in the school and community.
The student was also announced first in Year 12 on assessment this year, was school captain and hopes to pursue a career in either Engineering or Aviation on the completion of the HSC.
Moree Secondary College executive principal Peter Sheargold said Jake was a worthy recipient of the nationally-recognised award.
“The award recognises Jake’s contribution across several disciplines – he has been a wonderful asset to our school and the wider community, setting a terrific example for others to follow,” Mr Sheargold said.
Caltex Australia managing director and chief executive officer Julian Segal said the Australian fuel company was proud to have recognised generations of students like Jake since the awards began in 1985.
“I congratulate Jake and wish him well as he moves into the next phase of his life.
“Jake joins an exclusive list of Caltex Best All Rounders to have been recognised over the past three decades.”
The Caltex Best All Rounder Award has been presented to thousands of final-year students around the country across its 32-year history.
As a proud Australian business that’s been part of local communities for more than a century, Caltex seeks to acknowledge the all-round contribution that each student makes to their schools and communities, their leadership abilities and the good example they set for others.
Past winners include children’s show actor Emma Watkins (the current ‘Yellow Wiggle’) from The McDonald College in Sydney, and frisbee world-champion Adrian Gepp (PhD) from Faith Lutheran College in Tanunda, South Australia.
