In this episode, hear how civics and citizenship education is brought to life at Golden Grove High School with teacher Chantel Lee and year 11 student Joel Strauss. The pair share their experiences from last year’s inaugural Active Citizenship Convention, where students from across the state learned about politics, democracy, and having a real say in their communities. The episode highlights practical ways young people are supported to take on leadership roles and drive positive change, such as holding a student forum and taking on social action projects to improve access to period products. These activities help students build confidence, find their voice, and learn the value of working together, debating ideas, and making decisions. When students are given the chance, it’s clear to see just how eager and able they are to make a real difference in their school and beyond.
