Eksath Bhareti - Class of 2014

Favourite memory about Doncaster Secondary College:

Playing four square outside G Block in Year 12 because there were so many people and it was so intense. With anywhere between 20-40 people, it felt like being in a packed MCG with so many people surrounding the game getting way too invested in a lunchtime match.

Since finishing Year 12 I have:

I have been studying a double degree of a Bachelor of Commerce and a Bachelor of Finance at Monash University, currently in my final semester. Throughout Uni I have balanced study with a broad spectrum of work across Corporate, Not-for-Profit, Victorian Government and International Government. Outside of study and work, I have maintained my passion for travelling through regular trips around Australia and overseas, with upcoming trips planned for Bora Bora and Western Australia later this year. Similarly, my love for music and languages have grown stronger through regular jam sessions and attempting to re-learn French. Above all, I have been so blessed to be happy, healthy and living life with wonderful friends and family around me.

Currently, I am:

Working at the Department of Education and Training as a Project Administrator, at the Consulate of Mauritius as the Business Liaison Manager, at the Australian Red Cross as a Member of the Victorian Youth Advisory Committee and for the Victorian Government as Co-Chair of the Victorian Youth Congress.

Do you have any advice you’d like to share with current DSC students? 

Three key things to keep in mind. Firstly, keep a priority for people and building relationships. As you get older, you won't remember staying home that one night because you were too tired but you will remember the time you spent with friends having fun and building relationships. We're all doing life together so we should always keep people at the forefront of what we do. Secondly, be intentional with your actions, don't do anything for the sake of it but do things because they have a purpose, because they help others, and because they make you happy. Thirdly, be thankful. We are so blessed to have the lives we have with drinkable water, a roof over our heads and to live in Melbourne. By being thankful we can stay grounded, be more positive and connect with others better.
