Ambassadors arrive in Adelaide
This week, 20 year 11s from rural and remote South Australia have come together for the first forum of the 2021 Rural Youth Ambassador program.
So far the South Australian Ambassadors have started sharing their experiences, thoughts and ideas about growing up in rural and remote communities.
The group has started working on exciting ideas about how education can be improved in rural communities. Eventually the Ambassadors will present these ideas to Ministers of Education.
They’ve already been invited to present a keynote presentation at the upcoming Rural Education Leaders Conference in June!
