Winners of this new student awards program include Jonty Fizer (West Vancouver), Michelle Hoskin (Windsor), Julian Stark (Sutherland), Soo Bhin Choi (Seycove), Liam McKee-Wright (Sentinel), Kate Medcalf (Argyle), Jian Steenkamp (Rockridge), Andrew Choi (Handsworth), Victor Sanchez (Carson Graham) and Summer McDonald (Mountainside Alternative).

Funds for the awards were raised by the WVCAC through the donations of its members and a fundraiser concert held last October.
