CSU experience for Indigenous girls

24 JUNE 2015

Aboriginal girls from high schools in Albury-Wodonga and Wagga Wagga are getting a taste of university life during a three-day camp at Charles Sturt University (CSU) this week. Sixteen students from Years 7 to 10 are taking part in the second Aboriginal Career Links Camp at CSU in Albury-Wodonga from Tuesday 23 June to Thursday 25 June. Organised by the University's Future Moves program, the teenagers are exploring the university campus, attending workshops about Aboriginal women and culture, speech pathology and environmental sciences. A theatre workshop will be held from 10am to 2pm on Thursday 25 June to enable the students to explore the camp's theme, My Creative Spirit. The inaugural camp was held last year.
