student

Name: Jared

School: Christian Brothers College

I had help from some special people. Their names are: My Nan Sandy and Greg. My home class teacher Liz Tiderman. Many friends and their parents.

The hardest time for me was when: I first started in Year 8 the school was very big and I did not know anyone.

The best time for me was: Being picked for the Year 12 football team when I was only in Year 10. My Nan said no so I played in Year 11.

I am hoping:  To find an electrical apprenticeship.

I know that I am a role model for other Aboriginal students in my family and in my community and I am encouraging other students by: Agreeing to be part of this SSABSA program.
