Lasanee Krakouer, a Maali student, deserves congratulations for winning the Belle of the Perth NAIDOC Ball title. This is an incredible accomplishment considering the size and importance of the ball. We are extremely proud of her and the way she stands as a Proud Aboriginal Woman- she is a leader and inspires others in how she engages and is interested in her education and her culture.
