Narrogin Shooting Stars participants Chrishae and Dakoda have ended the term on a high, both receiving Follow the Dream End of Term Awards.
The Awards are given to Follow the Dream participants to recognise their excellence in a certain area.
Year 7 Shooting Stars participant Chrishae said she felt proud to be recognised for her hard work this term, receiving the Most Improved Award.
“I feel very happy and proud of myself,” said Chrishae.
“Shooting Stars has helped me on this journey as they keep me motivated and drop me home after the Follow the Dream program.”
Year 10 Shooting Stars participant, Dakoda, was also delighted to receive her Highest Achiever Award.
“Just being recognised for my achievements and all my hard work this term is really nice,” said Dakoda.
“I am very proud of myself and thankful to Shooting Stars for the constant support and motivation to come to school and follow the dream.”
Shooting Stars Executive Officer Fran Haintz said participant achievements are at the core of the program’s success.
“A big congratulations to these girls on their dedication to their studies this term,” said Haintz.
“This is a perfect example of service providers collaboratively working together for the benefit of the community. It’s great to see Shooting Stars and Follow the Dream working together to achieve a common goal.”
Follow the Dream is an initiative of the Polly Farmer Foundation that runs alongside Shooting Stars in many of our sites to help empower Aboriginal girls and women in regional communities.
