NBC OurSchool Alumni

Here at the OurSchool Alumni Program, we have been busy connecting with Alumni from Northern Bay College and our foundation schools, to find out what they have been up to, and inviting them to be a part of our Alumni Program.

It’s been really impressive and exciting, to speak to these Alumni, and to hear their stories and the diverse career pathways they have taken. One theme that comes up a lot when we speak to Alumni, is the power of a great teacher.

Two such examples of alumni speaking on the teachers that shaped them is Samantha Wilson and Yolanda Estaban.

Samantha Wilson is from our class of 2018 and has worked very hard in her Commerce and Arts Degree and has landed herself a graduate job with Deloitte. She mentions the teachers that helped her in her school journey, not just for the academic side, but also for the extra support they provided.

Yolanda Estaban also reflected on the power of a great teacher, who can steer you in the right direction or open your mind to a new idea. Her graphics teacher was so influential, that he inspired her to think big and aim for a career in Design and Architecture, and lucky for us he did. She is now a Senior Lecturer in Architecture and inspiring the next generation.

A great teacher can inspire and help shape a student and we feel lucky to have such talented, hard-working teachers at Northern Bay College.

If you, or someone you know, has an interesting caree or story, we’d love to hear from you at alumni@nbc.vic.edu.au  or follow us on our Facebook page
