Spotlight on former DSC student Monte Gaffney - Class of 2017

2017 graduate Monte started his degree, a Bachelor of Law/Bachelor of Commerce degree at La Trobe University, in 2019, after taking a gap year in Manchester, England. During his time overseas he travelled extensively around England, Scotland, Ireland, France and Germany. 

Monte was highly involved within the music program during his time at Doncaster Secondary College, playing in the school Stage Band and 'Quarter Life', a band comprised of fellow DSC students. His fondest memories of the school being the "music tours and school productions". This year, Monte has been returning to the school to help out his brother and other Unit 3/4 Music Performance students by being their bass player. Some of the photos below show Monte performing with the DSC VCE students at their music Soiree in September. 

 

He discussed how important it is to aim as high as possible, but also to remember to have fun and utilise your young adulthood to have new experiences and create memories. As Monte said, "if you work hard, the possibilities are endless".
