SOPHIA’S EYES OPENED TO A GLOBALISED WORLD

Year 10 student Sophia Amin has described her recent attendance at the United Nations Youth Australia conference in Perth as an “eye opening experience”.

The theme of the conference was "Our Globalised World” and Sophia participated in a range of workshops throughout the week to discuss how globalisation has changed society socially, culturally, politically and economically.

Year 11 student Aidan Sinclair may have a career in journalism ahead of him after getting a story published in the Bendigo Times recently.

The IB student was part of the Youth Press Gallery in the 2023 Youth Parliament, and part of his role was to pitch stories from the Parliament to local media.

He took a keen interest in a bill put forward by Bendigo students to increase public safety in regional and rural areas.

He wrote the story, took some photos, and then pitched the package to the editor of the Bendigo Times.

The result was a great run in the Times. Great work, Aidan.
