13.01.2022 #TBT #throwback #healthcareers #seedfoundationaustralia Meagan was a student at Kirwan state high school when she completed her Cert III in Health Services Assistance through Connect ‘n’ Grow. Post school Meagan completed her Cert III in Business Administration within Queensland Health, and later secured a role as an Administration Officer.... Meagan tells us that she enjoys facing the constant challenges in her current role as it keeps her on her toes, and her brain active. She finds her job extremely rewarding within the Women’s and children’s outpatient clinic. She has learnt an extensive amount about the hospital system and how it works, and how crucial our admin teams are. Meagan wants to do some more study in the future, more clinically based and look into becoming an Indigenous health worker, as she would like to be more involved within the Indigenous community. 'Overall I’m happy with where I am career wise now, and thank Seed Foundation for all their support in ensuring that I arrived towards this path.' Meagan Beaumont

12.01.2022 #ThrowbackThursday This Thursday we are shining a light on another one of our brilliant past students - Naizel Enosa. Naizel was a student at St Teresa's College in Abergowrie, and was one of the first students to complete our First Peoples Health Program.... He was one of the first graduates from the college to go to University, and is now a trained Nurse and working in the Northern Peninsula area. Such a great role model for current students. Hard work and persistence really does pay off. #throwbackthursday #tbt #seedfoundationaustralia #whatdoessuccesslooklike #alwayswasalwayswillbe #inthistogether #respect #reconciliation #firstnations #aboriginal #torresstraitislander #indigenous #traditionalcustodians #connection
