Congratulations to Year 11 student, Seth Powell for receiving the City of Playford’s Award of Young Active Citizenship!

Seth was recognised at this year’s Australia Day Breakfast for his outstanding work in the community as a member of the Edinburgh Scout Group. Through his six years of Scouting, Seth has had the opportunity to teach valuable life skills and mentor young people in his community. He was nominated by his Scout leaders for his valuable membership and active role-modelling.

Seth said he felt he contributed to his community by “being able to help where I can, to help those who need assistance and to those who want to learn”.

Seth has learned many important skills through his time with Scouts that he has applied to his everyday life, particularly communication, meeting new people, and working with others in the community. He has also led Anzac vigils and dawn services as the guard commander and is especially proud to honour his family and ancestors in military service.

We are very proud of Seth’s achievements and his exemplary work in the community.
