This prize testifies to Elizbeth’s commitment to the Brisbane community through her work with House Conspiracy and Kurilpa Futures.

Elizabeth has managed her voluntary roles at House Conspiracy and Kurilpa Futures while working in Indigenous Schooling Support with students studying in Brisbane from remote communities.

She is a mother and grandmother, a friend and mentor to past students, and to many others in her community.

We feel so lucky to have Elizabeth as President of the House.

We acknowledge the Turrbal and Yugara people, the First Nations custodians of the lands where House Conspiracy now stands and that sovereignty has never been ceded. We pay respect to their Elders, lores, customs and creation spirits, recognising that these lands have always been places of teaching, creativity and learning. We acknowledge the important role Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people play within our community.
