Bethany College Hurstville

Congratulations to Ms Lili Braidner who was recognised last night at the Premier's Teacher Scholarship Awards.

Ms Braidner was awarded the Premier's Economics and Business Educators NSW Commerce Scholarship.

Her research will explore how digital tools and AI can enhance teaching practice, foster innovation and strengthen connections between classroom learning and real-world applications. As part of her scholarship, Ms Braidner will spend time researching in Estonia, Canada, Finland, Singapore and Australia.

Well done Ms Braidner! We're so proud of you. 👏

Congratulations to Year 7 student Anna L, who has enjoyed an incredible run of success on the basketball court!

Over the weekend, Anna represented the Sutherland Sharks at the Basketball NSW U14 State Cup in Orange, helping her team claim the State Cup Championship. Adding to the achievement, Anna was named Tournament MVP for her outstanding performances across the competition. 🌟

This follows further success with her Sutherland Sharks Division 1 team, who were recently crowned Grand Final Champions, with Anna also receiving the Competition MVP award.

Anna’s basketball journey continues with some exciting opportunities ahead, including representing the Sydney Flames U14 team in Shanghai and participating in the Basketball NSW Talented Athlete Program (TAP) camp.

An outstanding achievement, Anna. The Bethany College community congratulates you and wishes you every success for the opportunities ahead!
