🏛️ This week, Cr Mohamed Semra from the City of Maribyrnong visited Simonds Catholic College to meet with our students, sharing his journey, his role in local government, and what it means to lead with purpose in the community.
🎙️ Mayor Semra spoke with refreshing honesty about resilience, leaving our young men with two powerful reminders:
"It's never rejection, it's redirection."
"Take learning as a gift, even if pain is the teacher."
For our young men, conversations like these are more than inspiring; they're formative. Exposure to leaders who are accessible, authentic, and invested in the next generation makes a real difference.🙌
