âItâs an honour. Itâs kind of baffling, it hasnât really sunk in yet,â Charlee said following the ceremony.
âIt was an amazing ceremony, it was just such an incredible honour truly just to be here and then to win the award.
âI knew I was nominated but you never really think youâre going to win, I was a bit surprised.
âI really want to make a difference in the world. I donât know what Iâm going to do with my life once I graduate, but I do know I want to make a difference.
