August 2, 2018<\/strong><\/p>\n

The University of Southern Queensland recently organised a special careers camp to provide an “on-campus experience” for 56 young Indigenous students from across south-east Queensland.<\/p>\n

A university spokesperson said “belonging, languages, identity and education” were the cornerstones of the camp.<\/p>\n

Organiser Yvonne O\u2019Neill said the program encouraged students to find self-confidence, using culture as a foundation to build their futures.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe’re building a network for the kids through the Deadly Ways Program, so they have a clear pathway through high school and on to university,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Kingaroy State High School students Rashida Scott and Angelina Philips-Petersen were among the students taking part.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rashida already has plans for a career in education, but she wanted to become more involved in her culture.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wanted new experiences and to learn more about my culture. It\u2019s important because you get to know who you are as a person,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Over three days, the students worked with photographer LaVonne Bobongie to share their dreams via an “aspirational wal”\u2019, created their own music with Troy Jungaji Brady and learned new ways to express feelings with Troy Casey.<\/p>\n

Well-known singer\/songwriter Shellie Morris also took time out to work with the students to raise their voices through song.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cIt’s about self-esteem and opening your voice through the medium of music. You’re able to address a lot of issues by placing it on a piece of paper and singing it out,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
