Our Lawley Legends

 

In 2017, the school decided to honour and celebrate members of our school Alumni who have made a contribution to their field of endeavour since leaving school.

These individuals form our Lawley Legends, and are remembered through our Walk of Fame, a series of bricks embedded in the paving between the Café and the Oval, profile posters placed around the school and through this section of our Alumni website.

We believe that this opportunity to celebrate the success and achievements of our alumni fits very well with the Lawley Alumni motto: "Remembering the past - Advancing the future"

Individuals are selected by our Lawley Legends panel, and may be nominated by any member of the school community through either our web form, or the Lawley Alumni email.

Individuals may be past students, staff or people from the community who have contributed to the life of the school, and generally, their achievements should be representative of a career rather than a single notable achievement.
