SHE LEADS HIGH 2017 CONFERENCE
As an extension of SHE Leads, the
third SHE Leads High Conference
was held on 19 May, 2017, at the
Adelaide Convention Centre.
It was an amazing day of leadership, friendship
and learning. With the theme of “Creating your
Path”, speakers shared how they had created
their own leadership pathways, and encouraged
attendees to carve out their unique paths as
well!
With more than 180 participants from schools
around the state, the young women delegates
were inspired and challenged by passionate
speakers, including AWFL Crows Captain
Chelsea Randall, Manal Younas, Hannah Fabig,
Rebecca Shaw, Ella Symonds, Lucy Hackworth,
Indy Wishart and the fabulous MC Maddie Dunn
from Channel 7. We received valuable and
inspiring feedback on the conference and we
look forward to hosting the next successful SHE
Leads High Conference in 2018!

Here’s what some of our SHE Leads High
Conference delegates had to say about the day:
‘Eye opening experience, chance for your
voice and opinion to be heard.’
‘I feel more empowered and have a better
understanding of myself and the ways I can
help.’
