Congratulations to Andre Ian Francis of SWAHA Hindu College on successfully achieving an Additional Scholarship in the field of Environmental Science this year. During Andre’s speech as Valedictorian, he recognised that it was not always an easy journey. However, he attributed his success to the strong support system that helped propel him to high academic heights. He acknowledged that he could not have done it on his own and was grateful for the encouragement from his parents, teachers and peers. He always had a tremendous love for chemistry, biology and environmental science, which has now inspired him to pursue studies in medicine at The University of the West Indies. SWAHA wishes Andre all successes as he now enters a new chapter in his life.
