VIP Opening Speaker - Mr David Hawkes - Former ABC News Presenter & Former MLSHS P&C President
Until his retirement 7 years ago, David Hawkes was one of Australia's most experienced and versatile broadcasters. He had been "on air" for 48 years, working in radio and television for the ABC and commercials networks in NSW, QLD and WA.
During his 33 years working in WA, David was seen on TV as: newsreader, interviewer, co-host of the cooking program, "Two for the Pot", front man for the games show, "FairGo!" and anchorman for the current affairs program, "Statewide".
On radio 6WF, he took over the breakfast session from the legendary John Juan and hosted broadcasts by the WA Symphony Orchestra. In 1984 David joined the staff of the WA Academy of Performing Arts (Edith Cowan University) to set up the Media Performance department. He returned to the ABC in 1987, and was chiefly heard reading the news.
Since hanging up the head phones he has been a regular guest speaker for many clubs and organisations throughout the metro and country areas.
In between all that, David was also P&C President during the reconstruction of the high school and has been actively involved with many P&C activities including this Community Art Auction.
