Bundaberg’s former high school duxes, where are they now. We would love to know.

Graduating high school – one of the biggest milestones in our lifetime – is a mammoth achievement let alone being awarded school dux.

Bundaberg’s former high school duxes have gone on to achieve their dreams, kick goals, or become inspirations, stalwarts or simply well-loved within their community, and the Bundaberg Newsmail is on a quest to find and showcase those amazing young people and what they have gone on to achieve.

We have featured many duxes over the years, including Isis District State High School dux of 2018, Hayden Wirth, who achieved an OP 1, and graduated from the University of Queensland with a Bachelor of Advanced Science (honours).
