Newman College was delighted to attend the Ballarat Christian College Careers Expo last week, connecting with students from Years 7–11 as they begin exploring their future pathways.
These conversations are an important reminder that tomorrow's leaders come from diverse communities, backgrounds and experiences. At Newman College, we are committed to fostering an inclusive residential community where students from across regional, rural, interstate and international communities can thrive academically, personally and socially.
Thank you to Ballarat Christian College for the opportunity to engage with such thoughtful, motivated young people. We look forward to seeing many of these future leaders continue their journey and hope to welcome some of them to the Newman College community in the years ahead. 📷Photo courtesy of Ballarat Christian College.
