Former Dimboola Memorial Secondary College student Tracey Rigney was last night inducted into the College's Hall of Fame.

Tracey is a Wotjobaluk and Ngarrindjeri woman from Dimboola, who has a passion for storytelling that she inherited from her family, in particular her Grandfather.

She attended DMSC from 1992 to 1997 and embraced many opportunities during that time, including going on an athletics tour of Canada and travelling to Germany on exchange. Tracey was also House Captain of the Lochiel house, as well as being College Vice Captain, in 1997.

Following her Year 12 studies, Tracey's career path saw multiple changes before she found her calling in a Creative Arts degree at the University of Melbourne, majoring in creative writing.

Her first play, entitled "Belonging", was staged at what is now the Playbox theatre. At 21, she was the youngest playwright to have her work performed at that theatre, an honour she still holds.

Tracey is now widely recognised as an award-winning filmmaker and writer who has many artistic and creative credits to her name.

Most recently, she worked in the Assistant Director's Attachment on the next "Thor" instalment, filmed in Queensland.

Tracey is currently writing for the new ABC TV series "The Warriors" which will hit TV screens next year.

When accepting her award, Tracey acknowledged College Wall of Honour member and former DMSC teacher Brian Frecker as an inspiration.

She was humbled by being inducted into the Hall of Fame, joining over thirty other high achieving former students.

"I didn't think my photo would be on the wall anywhere here at the school, let alone in the Hall of Fame."

She also thanked the person who nominated her for the honour - "to the mystery person who nominated me, thank you."
