World Vision Conference

Christina and Robert with Ms Mateus and Rev Tim Co


On Monday 10th May, Robert Bakous, Ms Mateus and I attended a World Vision Conference for High School students at Cabramatta Rotary Club to discuss the benefits of supporting the organisation. There, we were joined by guests, students and teachers from other schools in our region to have dinner, and we were fortunate enough to be addressed by REv Tim Costello the CEO of World Vision Australia. His motivating speech prompted us to make the most of our leadership skills and to assist and encourage others to do the same for the cause.

 

There was an opportunity to meet, network and share ideas with students from other schools, both public and private. Afterwards, we were able to meet Tim Costello, who happens to be the brother of Peter Costello, and have our picture taken, proving our five seconds of fame!

 

Overall it was a great night and hopefully some of you will have the chance to attend one of their meetings next year.
