After 20 years I returned to Newcastle, Australia but this time it was to give a talk to students of Merewether High School. The event was organized in conjunction with the University of Newcastle’s Awards Night to be held at the Newcastle City Hall tomorrow. Two other nominated finalists, Dr. Andrew Mears and Ryan Andriessen supported the event with their own presentation related to their respective careers. I had fun interacting with the students and it was important that we broadened their horizons on the possibilities of choosing their future career path. All and all it was a great event, strengthening the association’s continued effort on our outreach programmes abroad.
