Ricci Marks Awards

/ / Published in

Ms PATTEN — Last week I got to attend the Koori Youth Council and was very pleased to be part of the Ricci Marks Awards, which recognise youth Aboriginal leadership. I would just like to congratulate Natasha Reid, who won the Rising Star Award; Tahlia Biggs, who won a Ricci Marks Award; and Zoey Marks, who also won a Ricci Marks Award. These are three wonderful women who I am sure we will see in high places soon.
