Murimurivalu set to begin new chapter overseas

Queen Victoria School sprinter Josese Murimurivalu is embarking on a new chapter in his athletic career, departing Fiji this Friday for Brisbane Boys College in Australia. He has secured a five-year scholarship that will support his pursuits in athletics, sports, and academics.

Murimurivalu's departure follows a highly successful year at QVS, where he was instrumental in several key sporting achievements. He played a significant role in ending a 33-year drought for the school in the Coca-Cola Games sub-junior grade and helped the Under-14 rugby team reach the Vodafone Deans Trophy final.

His father, former Flying Fijian Kini Murimurivalu, has been a strong supporter of Josese's development, dedicating time to assist the school's coaching staff. The school acknowledges the family's commitment as a crucial factor in Josese's progress.

While Murimurivalu will miss his teammates' upcoming Deans final, his scholarship represents the next step in a journey shaped by hard work, sacrifice, and faith. The opportunity in Brisbane is expected to provide a platform for him to elevate his athletic, sporting, and academic ambitions to a new level.
