Monday 24 March was an opportunity to bring together school captains, student leaders and Principals/Deputy Principals from 22 schools across the public school system, independent schools, and Catholic Education sector at Ghan Kebab House, Kilburn - all united in the spirit of leadership, inclusion, and shared values. Together, we celebrated leadership, diversity, and the shared values that bring Australians closer - across communities, cultures, and generations.

As a College, we were fortunate enough to attend and be involved in an experience to learn and connect with others. The engagement, energy, and presence of so many impressive young leaders provide us all hope and pride for the future!

• The Zoe Bettison MP, Minister for Multicultural Affairs & Tourism, who presented the keynote address with inspiring words of hope for our future with the young leaders in the room,
• Guest Speakers, Prof. Mehmet Ozalp, ISRA Academy & Charles Sturt University with a message of unity for all present, and Mr Dale Atkinson communicating words of commitment and support for the Department of Education, and
• Performances from Mr Fahad Farooque (Singer & Performer) and Armin Taheriasnaashari (Guitarist) a student from Norwood International High School that added joy to the event.

This event could not have occurred if it was not for the sponsorship of the University of Adelaide, the Department for Education, and the planning and organisation from the leadership staff and students from Pinnacle College.
