My community of Lindsay has been so resilient throughout the pandemic, including our local schools and students. That's why this year's Lindsay Quiet Achiever Awards will be so special, recognising students that have gone above and beyond to serve their school and their community and worked hard to support and help others without seeking praise. Local schools have told me of their students who have shown quiet diligence, consistent application and humility, always finding ways to get involved and always helping others without any fuss or expectation. It's this spirit and incredible effort that has epitomised how people in Western Sydney have endured and overcome the pandemic.

As we draw closer to the end of the year, our local preschools will also be celebrating our youngest graduates, who are about to embark on a new and exciting chapter of their lives and education. I look forward to visiting as many of our local schools as possible, and our preschools too, over the next few weeks and, particularly with my Lindsay Quiet Achiever Awards, recognising the amazing efforts of students in Lindsay who have achieved so much this year.
