Remuera Lions Citizenship Awards

Congratulations to Boys’ School students, Benjamin Hardie, Year 6 and Akash Mudaliar, Year 8, and Girls’ School students, Millie Thomas, Year 6 and Charlotte Koerber, Year 8, who were recipients of this year’s Remuera Lions’ Citizenship Awards.

These awards are presented each year by the Remuera Lions Club to students who best exemplify the ideals of the Lions Junior Citizenship Code. The code includes values such as ‘Honest in word and deed,’ ‘Willing to accept responsibility’ and ‘Generous with your time and talents for the improvement of your community without thought or personal rewards.’

Benjamin, Akash, Millie and Charlotte are worthy recipients of these awards. They were selected for their courtesy, caring natures and consideration of others. We congratulate them on being selected as representatives from our School. At a ceremony hosted by our school, the boys were presented with their badges to wear with pride on their blazers.
