Elijah was one of five students in Queensland to win the Premier's Anzac Day Prize for 2013. He wins a trip to Gallipoli and the Western Front in April, 2013.
At the time he entered the competition, in September 2012, Elijah was a Year 10 student at the remote Doomadgee State School;
his teacher, Mrs Sarah Dolan, worked with him to produce his winning entry.
He is now in Year 12 at Spinifex State College, Mount Isa.
