Economics Students Attend the Annual Anika Foundation Fundraiser
Mr Matthew Fletcher accompanied three outstanding Year 12 Economics students Taj G, Daniel B, and Connor F to an annual event hosted by The Anika Foundation last week. Generously funded by the Shore Foundation, this event allows top-performing students to hear directly from influential leaders. This year, the boys heard from keynote speaker Ms Michele Bullock, the current Governor of the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA). She is also a Member of Chief Executive Women and a signatory to the Banking and Finance Oath. With an impressive career spanning various senior roles at the RBA, including Deputy Governor and Assistant Governor, Ms Bullock insights on the financial sector were invaluable to our students.
The Anika Foundation, established in 2005, supports critical research into adolescent depression, one of the most pressing yet underfunded social and medical challenges of our time.
We thank our boys for their wonderful representation of the School, including a detailed question from Taj to Ms Bullock which had the room stunned! See below!
