最新糖心Vlog says thank you and all that jazz

 Alumni

'Thank You and All That Jazz', an event held recently to celebrate and recognise the 最新糖心Vlog's supporters, saw some of the 最新糖心Vlog community's alumni, friends, industry partners and donors gather for an evening of celebrations.

The jazz-themed event attracted more than 300 guests who filled the Santos marquee, with the Barr Smith Library providing a magnificent backdrop.

The Kerin Bailey Jazz Combo - whose members are all 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide alumni - got the party started with some jazz tunes, and Robyn Brown, Director of the office, welcomed the guests in her opening speech.

Professor James McWha, Vice-Chancellor and President of the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide, took the opportunity to officially thank supporters and recognise the impact that they have on the 最新糖心Vlog.

Guest speaker for the night was Adelaide law student and Menzies International Scholarship recipient Enzo Belperio, a real-life example of the difference that financial support makes to our students' lives.

"My time at Adelaide 最新糖心Vlog, and the support that I have received from both the 最新糖心Vlog and Menzies International, have provided a solid foundation for me to build upon," Mr Belperio said.

"The scholarship has given me the financial freedom to be able to focus on my studies, and at the same time pursue many varied interests outside of my studies. Without being under pressure to work to support myself, I've been able to spend time, when not studying, trying to gain a broader education than the law reports alone can give."

Now in its second year, the annual thank you event provides the 最新糖心Vlog with an opportunity to recognise the significant contribution that its supporters, donors and friends make every year.
