Lions Club Youth of the Year

Riley represented Don College at the Devonport Lions Club Youth of the Year. Along with three other competitors, Riley presented a five minute speech and answered two impromptu questions. The questions were about the major current issues of “Brexit” and, “ What makes me happy?”

'For my speech, I spoke about the very sensitive issue of family violence. Although I made a few people cry, I was the overall winner, and have made it through to the regional final on 7 April'.

Riley received a trophy and her name will go on a perpetual plaque. In April, Riley will take her speech and present it to a new audience, hoping to raise awareness of the painful issue that is domestic violence, and hopefully move even further in the competition. 

We wish Riley every success in the next stages of Lions Youth of the Year and we congratulate all the other students who have or will represent Don College at Lions Clubs across the North West Coast.
