To celebrate Rio Tinto’s 50^th anniversary and commitment to supporting Western Australian agriculture, four scholarships of $3750 have been awarded to talented tertiary students.

The Rio Tinto Groundbreaker Scholarships are delivered through the Royal Agricultural Society of WA (RASWA), the not-for-profit organisation that supports the state’s primary industries.

Duncraig 2013 Graduate, Komala Ravendran, was one of the lucky students to receive a scholarship.

Komala has completed her Bachelor in Animal Science at Murdoch University and will use the scholarship to complete her Honours.

Congratulations!
