This prestigious honour acknowledges educators who go above and beyond to inspire, engage and make a profound difference in the lives of students and their communities. Andre was recognised alongside an accomplished group of educators from across New South Wales for his contribution to the profession and his commitment to student growth, wellbeing and learning.

At Redlands, we believe education extends far beyond academic achievement. Our goal is to help young people develop the confidence, character and capabilities to thrive in an increasingly complex and changing world. Through sport and physical education, Andre brings this philosophy to life every day, creating opportunities for students to challenge themselves, build resilience, work collaboratively and develop as capable, confident learners.

We are incredibly proud to see Andre’s contribution to education recognised in this way and grateful for the lasting impact he has made, and continues to make, on our community.

Congratulations, Andre. A well-deserved honour!
