NECK injury victim Alexander Clark has resumed limited schoolwork in hospital and will watch Saturday night’s Wallabies Test on TV with mates from the Nudgee College community who have rallied around him.

Nudgee College principal Peter Fullagar said the youngster was in “good spirits” and making progress with his rehabilitation since his traumatic spinal cord injury while playing for the school’s 15Bs rugby team on August 4.

“Positive signs have seen Alexander eating a meal on his own, sitting up for extended periods in the morning and afternoon and spending gradually longer time in the wheelchair for rehabilitation,” Mr Fullagar posted on the college’s facebook page in his latest update.

Clark, 15, is bravely fighting for gains in movement at Lady Cilento Children’s Hospital.

The Nudgee College Rugby Support Group has started a bumper fundraising raffle with a $22,990 Hyundai car as the top prize donated by Zupps Aspley and Hyundai.

All proceeds from the fundraising, through www.rafflelink.com.au/ncrugby2018, will go to the Clark family to support Alexander in his recovery.

Already, thousands of $5 tickets have been sold ahead of the raffle being drawn after the Nudgee College-The Southport School match at the school on Saturday week.

First XV captains Harry Vella (Nudgee) and Tom Van der Schyff (TSS) visited Alexander in hospital yesterday.

The outpouring from the Nudgee College community and the GPS schools family in general has been enormous.

“It has been this outpouring of kindness and generosity that has been Alexander’s greatest support,” the Clark family said in a recent statement.

“Alexander’s determination and strength has been remarkable, and truly inspiring.”

Last month, in a mass show of support for the injured teen, 1500 Nudgee students gathered on Ross Oval to form the shape of a heart around the words “Be Strong Alex”.

The young winger’s life changed in an instant on August 4.

He dived to score a try at speed as he was tackled, and tumbled, in the 15Bs match on the Flats at Nudgee College.

Alexander watched the Wallabies’ recent Bledisloe Cup loss in Auckland from his hospital bed with friends while sharing pizza.
