At last night’s Gala Dinner, we honoured not just our Trainer of the Year — but also two incredible educators who were awarded Highly Commended in recognition of their dedication and impact.

🎉 Congratulations to:
Gillian Hargans, Zeal Futures
Daniel Tame, Zeal Futures

These passionate trainers were acknowledged for their outstanding commitment to student growth, community learning, and the power of education.

We made sure both Gillian and Daniel had their time in the spotlight — because being Highly Commended means they are still absolute champions of community education. 🏆
