Shane King, Restaurant Associates
Asked how he felt about winning, Shane said he said: Disbelief that I won the award because I had to be cajoled into entering. I’d Like to dedicate it to Kerry Mabbley because she has helped me so much. When I started school I couldn’t read or write and together with the teachers who helped me, Kerry has taught me how to be a better ambassador for Springboard.
With this award I’ll be able to tell the students that with hard work and perseverance they can achieve things that perhaps they never thought they could achieve.
