Starting the day with a moment of inspiration, students will be joined by the Lord Mayor of City of Adelaide - Sandy Verschoor. Having contributed to the success of Adelaide’s thriving arts and culture community for more than two decades, Sandy has a long-knowing history of fostering change through creativity - and will share some key learnings with the audience. Following her warm welcome, your superstar host Nicole Dyson will then lead an activity with the audience which will spark the tone for a day of learning, inspiration and creation.

From establishing a mental health podcast for young men, to life as a child in a Bhutanese refugee camp, to delivering healthcare for people with disability and complex medical issues - our inspiring young panellists have a wealth of stories to share. Join Callum, Monu & Trudy for a lively discussion and Q&A as they explore the narratives behind their paths to impact. Through the sharing of their stories, we're sure that new ones will emerge!
