The Maroondah Young Leaders provides leadership and personal development training for approximately 30 Year 10 students with the aim of developing confidence, leadership, team building skills for the participants.

Tonight I attended the Young Leaders Presentation Night, which includes speeches and short skits given by the course participants who spoke about the skills they learnt throughout the program. The students who all spoke with passion as well as the feedback provided by parents and teachers alike highlighted the immense benefits of the confidence-building program.

The participants of the Young Leaders Program must be commended for their participation and I wish them all the best as they enter VCE and beyond.
