1. The Young Leaders Summer School at Trinity College is happening again – and we'd love for
your students to join us in December! The program offers an enriching, stimulating and
inspiring environment for students to experience a taste of life at the prestigious University of
Melbourne.
Applications now open for Young Leaders Summer School
This year we have some exciting new activities planned, including a live link up with NASA, in Houston, Texas, where
students will have the opportunity to quiz NASA experts, and a lecture by Professor Peter Doherty, a Nobel Laureate
who specialises in the field of infections.
Some of the other exciting activities we have lined up for our December program include a debate in Parliament
House, training with the National Institute of Circus Arts, Bollywood dancing, and a leadership project, where students
develop a plan for tackling some of the most pressing global issues. Throughout the program, students develop critical
and creative thinking skills, goal setting, teamwork, autonomy, communication, community awareness and confidence.
'Young Leaders provides the perfect opportunity for young students to develop their character as a leader, to integrate
with people from many backgrounds and deepen their thoughts on world issues.' Samuel Pattinasarane (YLSS July
2012)
