Flinders Class of 2025 graduate Natalie Gilmore said, 鈥淢y plans for the future are still undecided, but I am truly grateful that I have so many options. Next year, if I stay in Australia I am planning on studying law and/or engineering in Melbourne or Sydney. I've also recently been accepted into the University of St Andrews in Scotland and have undergone the interview process for the University of Cambridge in England studying English. If I can manage to source a scholarship, attending either university overseas would be a dream come true.
鈥淢y time at Flinders has given me a real passion for learning. Whether it's English, Science or Maths, I am motivated by the challenge of learning new concepts, a mindset I will carry with me throughout my tertiary education and into my future career.
鈥淚 will definitely miss all of my amazing teachers at Flinders. They have been the true pillars of my education, and their unending passion and support is priceless.鈥�
Her advice to others during the senior years is to find a balance between study and rest.
鈥淪tudy is so important in Year 12, but I found I performed better when I had the opportunity to clear my head for a while,鈥� Natalie said. 鈥淔or me, co-curricular activities, like music, were the best way to take a break and have fun. Also, my friends and family are my biggest support network, and so it was important to spend time with them too.鈥�
