This award is presented annually to those whose general excellence in educational administration and whose learning, experience and contribution to the Council have earned lasting respect and gratitude. With its origins in the Ndjebbana language of Central Arnhemland in the Northern Territory of Australia, the term Nganakarrawa (pronounced nana-ga-raa-wa) refers to “those who move about, all seeing, all knowing, knowledgeable and well regarded”.
