Plumpton High School Aboriginal students Kathleen Kennedy, Ebby Morgan, Isabella Cobban, Janaali Skinner and Summah-Rose Dickson were invited to perform at the prestigious Aurora Education Foundation Study Tour Reception held at the Calyx in the grounds of the Royal Botanic Gardens. This was to celebrate 11 years since Aurora’s first international Study Tour, which has now seen more than 200 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students build networks of support at some of the world’s best universities, including Harvard and Stanford in the US, and Cambridge and Oxford in the UK.
Plumpton has 21 Aurora Education Foundation Scholars presently being provided a pathway for progress in their education and Indigenous leadership, and it is inspiring to see our students with this same opportunity.
Thank you to the Aurora Education Foundation, Karlene and Tamika Rex for organising and providing this invaluable experience for our Aboriginal students in collaboration the Aurora Education Foundation.
