Alumni at Koonung  

We had great pleasure welcoming alumni Conor (Ayres) Jobson (Year Group 1999) and Rosie Strasser (Year Group 2011) back to Koonung Secondary College to talk to current students about their study and career pathways. 

Conor spent time with Mr Leask’s Year 11/12 Media students and talked about her career as a TV writer and producer in the Broadcast Media Industry. Conor was inspirational to young minds interested in a Journalism career and really opened up the students’ thinking about careers available in the Media Industry. She really drummed home the important of networking and has invited the students to stay in contact with her, for which we are very grateful.

Rosie met with the Y11/12s studying Visual Communication Design and spent time in Arts Space, which takes place at lunchtime on a Monday. Rosie is a Senior Consultant in Spatial Strategy and Interior Design at Deloitte Digital Australia. She has a keen interest in how space can deliver impactful experiences and influence human behaviour. Rosie finished Y12 at Koonung in 2011 and went on to study a Bachelor of Science majoring in Zoology / Animal Biology before changing pathways and moving on to study an Associate Degree in Interior Decoration and Design at RMIT Uni. The students were inspired by Rosie’s passion for her field and her study pathway. 

Koonung Secondary College is building an alumni program (former students) with the help of Ourschool. Ourschool is a not-for-profit service that helps public high schools build a thriving alumni network to benefit current students and the school community.
