Scotch College

Recognition for Cambodia work

WORDS: Ms Libby Moore

The local member for Kooyong, Josh Frydenberg MP (pictured above right), hosted a volunteers’ breakfast for residents who had worked overseas in community projects.

Among the guests were six Scotch students accompanied by Mrs Libby Moore and her daughter Madeleine, who travelled to Cambodia in June 2010 to build a house with the Habitat for Humanity organisation. Mr Frydenberg thanked the boys individually for their work, and presented each with a certificate of thanks from the Australian government.
