We were honoured to have SA Chief Scientist, Professor Caroline McMillen visit us on Wednesday, 3 April. This came about because Caroline met students at the Global Chemistry Breakfast back in February and asked if she could visit our school because of this - well done!

On Wednesday, Caroline spoke to Year 11 and 12 Science and Agriculture students about her background and the "sliding doors" that gave her opportunities to lead and learn science. She encouraged students to grab opportunities and have a “no regrets - give it a go” approach. She shared her responsibilities as chief scientist and the vast array of pathways into science. Questions were asked from students and then Caroline queried our students about their thoughts on science. A rewarding informative afternoon. Thank you to Caroline and Gillian, her chief of staff. We are very grateful.
