Recently, our Student Leaders and Miss Grace attended the Halogen Youth Leadership Conference at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre. The event brought together student leaders from across Victoria to hear from some of Australia’s most influential leaders. It was an incredible opportunity for our students to develop their leadership skills, gain new perspectives, and be inspired for the future!
Reflection from Amber, Charlie, Maddie and Poppy:
"On Monday, we attended National Young Leaders Day in Melbourne. The conference was filled with many unfamiliar faces from primary and secondary schools across Australia, including from places we'd never even heard of before! The session was filled with many dance breaks and activities along with four amazing guest speakers which we lucky enough to grab a photo them all! The speakers included:
• Thomas Duncan-Wait - successful screenwriter and author
• Emma McKeon - Australia’s most successful Olympian
• Majak Daw - the first Sudanese-Australian to ever play in the AFL
• Catherine Laga’aia - Actress set to play Moana in the upcoming Live Action Moana movie
The speakers all shared their personal journeys and the challenges they faced on the way to success. Their stories provided us with valuable life lessons and ideas that we can relate to our own lives. Overall it was an amazing experience which we 100% would recommend to future leaders!"
