More awards are coming out of the Grande Prairie Public School Division as the school year winds down.
The most recent award winner is Kairoh Winiandy, a Grade 6 student from Hillside Community School who received a distinguished 2024 Lieutenant Governor of Alberta Student Award.
The prestigious award aims to celebrate “exceptional” students from around the province who have shown significant growth in skills to better themselves, both personally and academically through determination, initiative, and independence.
Winiandy is described as a leader in his school through his kindness, empathy, and compassion with his fellow students and his involvement in team sports. The young man says he feels “very honoured” to have received the award.
“It makes me feel respected and proud of the great things I am doing.”
Winiandy received the award on June 10th during a ceremony at the Government House in Edmonton alongside nine students in Grade 6, Grade 9, and Grade 11 from across Alberta.
