On Thursday 29th February, 9 students plus Miss Leah and Mrs Demasi went to the Youth Lead and Dream Conference held at the Adelaide Convention Centre. Throughout the day we heard stories from different people about their lives and journeys which led them to become leaders.

We did lots of fun activities which gave us different skills such as learning how to solve problems using effective communication, games that led us to meet new people pushing us out of our comfort zone.

During our first break, we were given a challenge to ‘network’ with students from other schools. We met a total of 5 new students.

Our take-aways from this conference were

“No matter what your age is, you can still achieve things that your heart desires’”- Olivia

“Nothing can change if nothing changes”- Willow

“No matter what you are going through, you can still accomplish your goals”- Charlee

We had a fantastic time and learnt a lot of new skills to bring back to our school and share with the rest of the students.
