We also want to give a special mention to the Transformer coaches who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to get out finalists stage-ready: Brigid Davey-Skelton - Our dedicated Transformer coach who guided all four finalists through the program, Ben Hayden-Smith - Our brilliant pitch coach who helped finalists polish their presentations.

It's that time of the semester again - the Transformer Launchpad Pitching Competition! 🚀

Come along and watch our finalists pitch their business ideas and support your fellow students. Who knows... next semester, you might be the one pitching!

Public Speaking Workshop "The Unfair Advantage" ran on Wednesdays and Fridays in Weeks 2 and 3, and it was inspiring to witness the growth, confidence and courage of everyone involved.

A huge thank you to all our participants for showing up, stepping outside your comfort zones, and embracing the challenge - especially the iconic Toga Speech! And heartfelt thanks to our wonderful facilitator Jane Buckley, whose expertise, encouragement, and energy made the experience truly transformative.

Congratulations to Lennard Brades, recipient of the Mandy Grenby Memorial Award - Most Improved Student for the 261 semester series. This award recognises remarkable personal growth in public speaking and presentation skills, and Lennard's progress throughout the workshop was outstanding.

Well done to everyone involved - your growth as communicators is something to be proud of!
