Peter's award recognises his contribution to boarding at Knox including his role mentoring and assisting new students and his support of culturally inclusive initiatives in the boarding community.
Peter is greatly admired by staff and students within the Knox Grammar boarding community for his positivity and kind-hearted nature.
His community-minded attitude led to the formation of the school’s Cultural Immersion & Diversity initiative.
Peter has been an active participant in this student committee. He has proposed culturally inclusive changes to boarding and the introduction of culturally oriented events, including arranging a huge Chinese banquet for 57 Year 12 boarders.
He has also taken an active role in community events such as The Red Shield Appeal and White Ribbon Day. Zehao’s natural leadership and intuitive mentoring of both rural and international students demonstrates a maturity and understanding beyond his years.
Peter received his award from NSW Governor Margaret Beazley AO QC. Congratulations, Peter.
