Awards Night – Celebrating Excellence at Tannum Sands State High School
Each year, Tannum Sands State High School proudly hosts its Annual Awards Night early in Term 4 - an evening dedicated to celebrating the outstanding achievements of our students across academic, cultural, sporting, and community service domains.
This special event is a highlight of the school calendar, bringing together students, families, staff, alumni, and community members to recognise the hard work, dedication, and talent of our school community. The evening also features captivating performances by our talented Instrumental Music students, showcasing the depth of creativity and artistic expression nurtured at Tannum High.
The night culminates in the presentation of our two most prestigious honours:
- The School Spirit Award, recognising a student who exemplifies the values, pride, and community spirit of Tannum Sands State High School.
- The Student of the Year Award, awarded to a student who has demonstrated exceptional achievement, leadership, and contribution across all areas of school life.
As part of the evening’s celebrations, we are honoured to welcome back our highest-achieving ATAR graduate from the previous year, who shares their journey and insights with our current students. We also invite distinguished alumni to speak, offering inspiration and reinforcing the strong connections between past and present students.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to our generous community sponsors, whose ongoing support makes it possible to present a wide range of bursaries and awards. Their contributions play a vital role in recognising and encouraging student success.
Awards Night is more than a ceremony—it is a reflection of the values, aspirations, and achievements that define Tannum Sands State High School.
