International Women's Day 2011

10 March, 2011

I had the pleasure of addressing 600 senior girls from Santa Maria College as part of their Centennial International Women's Day Celebrations.  Marking the 100th year of International Women's Day, I discussed the social progress of women while reflecting on the contribution of their mothers, grandmothers and other women before them.  My main message to the girls was that they are already, and can continue to make a difference to their community.  I had the chance to chat with the student leaders after the presentation seen here with me from left, Rachel Chowcher, Tayla Noble, Vanessa Pittorini and Amelia Scalise.
