WINNER

Olivia Bradshaw - Year 12 

On Thursday 19 September, the Hon. Milton Dick MP - Speaker of the House of Representatives, announced Olivia (Year 12 Captain) as the WINNER of the Year 12 category for the 2024 My First Speech competition.

The competition asked students in Years 10 to 12 to write and record a 90-second speech on a topic they are passionate about as if they are making their first speech in the House of Representatives.

From hundreds of entries across the country, Olivia’s speech focused on improving the public education system and reintroducing free university fees.

Olivia is now invited along with a parent to Parliament House in Canberra on 5 & 6 November, to meet members of parliament and the Hon. Milton Dick MP, along with others. She will also be invited to give her speech at a live event at Parliament House.

Congratulations, Olivia! This is truly an amazing achievement.
