Celebrating Excellence: Our Class Act Award Winners
October 16, 2025
The ODT Class Act awards recognise the excellence of outstanding young people across the southern region. We are incredibly proud to announce that our nominees, Addisyn Lawrence and Samuel Paton, have been celebrated as this year’s recipients.
Each year, the best and brightest pupils from local high schools gather at a special awards ceremony in Dunedin to receive their Class Act certificates from the Prime Minister. Addisyn and Samuel were presented with their awards on Thursday, October 16.
Well done, Samuel and Addisyn! It was a great honour to be there and celebrate your well-deserved achievement.
