STEM scholarship, 2024

Congratulations to Siev Khim Oeng, the 2024 recipient of our STEM Scholarship. This award recognises exceptional students who demonstrate outstanding potential in science, technology, engineering and mathematics.

Khim (pictured with Principal Sue Harrap), sees this award as a transformative opportunity.

“Not only as a student but also as a future engineer, this scholarship enables me to participate in the FIRST Robotics Competition,” Khim says.

This international high school event challenges teams to design, build and program 50kg robots for complex, game-based engineering tasks – all within a demanding six-week timeframe.

Khim says the scholarship extends far beyond financial support.

“Without this support, I would miss out on invaluable hands-on experience, mentorship, networking opportunities, and collaboration with talented peers that FRC offers,” she says.

“It empowers me to innovate, learn, and grow in ways that would otherwise be out of reach.”
