CHRISTMAS ISLAND USQ “I think that as a studying mum I set a positive example for my children. They see me working hard and know that I am often up late at night completing assignments. We often talk about this and I remind them that I am studying because I felt I needed to further my education, to get where I want in life. For my children, that might not be university, but I hope that seeing me achieve my goals will encourage them to strive for what they want in life and not give up because of minor hurdles, like a dodgy internet connection.”
