The LEA Service Award, sometimes referred to as the “retiring award”, is for the public recognition of more than 20 years of dedicated and exemplary service to Lutheran education, when a person retires or ceases substantial service to Lutheran education. This is currently the only service award issued by Lutheran Education Australia. Other awards may be offered by the regional offices of Lutheran education.
The LEA Service Award is for presentation to:
- persons who retire from, or cease substantial service to Lutheran education in public recognition of more than 20 years of distinguished service;
- next of kin of persons who die while in service to Lutheran education in public recognition of the extended years of distinguished service by the deceased.
