La Trobe University student wins Bendigo Community Health Services Award
La Trobe University student Celine Collins Bye has won the 2019 Bendigo Community Health Services Award.
The award recognises the La Trobe University Bachelor of Health Sciences student with the best academic, public health practice performance and attitude to client care in second and third year field experience.
Our CEO Gerard Jose attended the awards night at Ulumbarra Theatre to congratulate Celine and her family.
"We were lucky enough to have Celine spend time at Bendigo Community Health Services on a student placement last year so our staff saw first hand her dedication and passion for learning," Gerard said.
"It's important for our organisation to support La Trobe University and the annual Prize Ceremony which honours students for their academic achievements.
"We hope that Celine will use the recognition of our award as she continues her studies and then pursues her chosen career."
Celine was 'flattered' to receive the award especially after enjoying her placement at BCHS.
"The award means a lot to me. I had a great time at placement and I was really proud of the work I produced whilst at BCHS as a student," Celine said.
