In announcing the award at the Australia Day presentations on Thursday, January 25, Narooma Rotary president Bob Aston said each year Narooma Rotary awarded a $9000 scholarship paid over three years to a student from Narooma High School, thanks to a bequest.
Alicia is the 28th student from Narooma High School who has benefited from this bequest, assistance that now totals almost $240,000.
Alicia has deferred her studies in Animal and Veterinary Science at Charles Sturt University for a year so she can undertake a bovine embryo transferring course at a veterinary clinic in the USA.
Next year she will start a Bachelor of Animal Science and then hopes to transfer to a Bachelor of Veterinary Science/Veterinary Biology.
She was unable to defer a Veterinary Science course so accepted a place in Animal Science instead.
