Barambah PaCE mentor Mariah Saltner is thriving at the Cherbourg State School pre-prep room.
Mariah spends each day helping children with play dough, playing cricket and footy, singing, dancing, reading, counting and sounding out letters, among other things.
“It’s fun,” Mariah, 18, said.
“I like playing with the kids.”
Teacher Shelley Miller said Mariah did an excellent job.
“She gets in and helps out and it’s great to have her set of eyes and hands,” Miss Shelley said.
“She’s built a positive, strong relationship with our students.”
