BEERWAH State High School students were thrilled to have NRL star and former student Reed Mahoney drop in and give an inspirational speech about his journey to the big league.
The former student and Beerwah Bulldog was a grand finalist in the 2022 NRL grand final.
The school said it was fantastic to have Reed come along and talk to students about his journey, saying he was a true role model for students.
“We are so fortunate at Beerwah SHS to remain closely connected to our alumni, following the success of past students beyond the gates of our school community,” principal Lyn McDonald said.
Reed told students that there was no hidden secret to success.
Instead, it was simply a matter of hard work and commitment. Reed was also happy to sign autographs and take pictures with students and his favourite teachers.
Lyn thanked Reed for giving up his time and the school wished him success in 2023.
