STUDENT OF THE MONTH
Robyn Gobson (May)
For the dedication and hard work that I have seen, Robyn has taken on every work experience that I have offered to the class, looking after team mates with lifts to and from the work experience to train stations to make sure they are all going to get home safely. First to arrive everyday and the last to leave. Massive growth as well in the last month. Well done Robyn for your hard work and dedication to our craft.
Alana Jones (Mar/Apr)
Alana puts 100% effort and is always first to put her hand up for every work experience opportunity. Alana has a positive energy that is great to be around . She’s a talented makeup student who is always striving to practice and be the best artist she can be.
Zoe Gregg (May)
Zoe is one of our younger students but showed great maturity taking on a massive work experience with Runway Super model Australian. This was a big undertaking with months of preparation and big responsibilities. Zoe rose to the challenge, leading a group of 10 HMUA on the day. Well done Zoe.

Steph has a great attitude toward learning and improving her hair and makeup skills. Her attendance is fantastic as well as putting a lot of effort into her written work, often being the last student to leave when given the opportunity to work on assignments in class.
