Oakleigh Grammar has celebrated another year of academic excellence, with its 2024 Year 12 cohort achieving remarkable VCE results.
Leading the achievements is School Dux Sotiris Bakalis, who secured an impressive ATAR of 94.15.
Sotiris’s accomplishment is particularly inspiring, as he overcame the challenge of hospitalisation and surgery for appendicitis just weeks before the examination period. Despite these obstacles, he excelled with high VCE Study Scores in Mathematical Methods and Physics. Sotiris now looks forward to pursuing a degree in Astrophysics at Monash University.
The Dux Proximus for 2024, Christian Dunn, achieved an ATAR of 93.3, also excelling in Mathematical Methods and Physics with Study Scores in the high 30s. Christian plans to study Science at Melbourne or Monash University, underscoring his bright academic future.
“I am incredibly proud of the hard work and determination shown by our VCE students this year,” said Principal Mark Robertson.
“Their commitment to their studies, combined with the unwavering mentorship and support of our dedicated teachers, reflects the spirit of Oakleigh Grammar. Together, they have achieved personal growth and accomplishments that extend beyond results, preparing them for a bright future.”
Other standout performances include:
- Arietta Apostolopoulos: ATAR 89.15, aspiring to study Commerce/Law at Deakin University.
- Daniel Carmody: ATAR 87, planning to pursue Science/Engineering and awarded a scholarship at the University of Melbourne.
