What people say about the YPN
"The team's hard work gives Western Sydney high school students an idea of the challenges they will face in the labour market and prepare them to succeed."
The Hon. Chris Bowen MP, Shadow Minister for Climate Change and Energy, and Federal Member for McMahon. "The presentations were very engaging. The number of students who stayed back to actively ask questions said it all." Pamela Dunn, Careers Adviser, Fairfield High School. "The two presenters were very engaging and students responded very well. It's good for our students to be exposed to adults other than school staff." Felicia Patrizi, Careers Advisor, Chester Hill High School "It was relevant to the stage that the students are at during this present time. Students were learning about the importance of leadership and teamwork in a range of environments such as the workplace and school." Teacher, Lurnea High School " Western Sydney youth benefit through their exposure to the Network's volunteer speaker's depth of knowledge. The fact that they have shared similar life experiences as students reinforce the effectiveness of the program." Glenn Vanderwert, local parent. |
