  • DEBATES – Tuesday 18 October 2016 33 in 1994
    DEBATES – Tuesday 18 October 2016 In 1994 my parents made the decision to move from the comfortable life of Batchelor so my older sister, Jocelyn, could complete her final senior years in Darwin at St John’s college. In 1995 we moved to Darwin and I attended the local primary school of Malak. I then attended Sanderson High School and completed my grades 8, 9 and 10. I picked up a love of soccer in high school, and joined the school team and got into club soccer, which kept me busy on the weekends. I moved to Casuarina Senior College for grades 11 and 12, and in both years was selected to represent the NT at the national schoolgirls competition. One was in Gosford, New South Wales, and the other in Perth, WA. In Year 12 I was also selected as a Northern Territory representative for the National Youth Roundtable, which was made up of 50 young people around Australia. Whilst in my senior years of grades 10, 11 and 12, I participated in a program called the Aboriginal and Islander Tertiary Aspirations Program, better known as AITAP. This program focused on developing self- confidence, public speaking—which has come in handy—performing skills, getting over the shame-job factor, and having a go. People like Tanyah and Joanne Nasir made us students believe in ourselves and rise up to challenges in both the program and our personal lives. Through AITAP I participated in three annual Northern Territory challenges and one Queensland AITAP challenge, and attended various development workshops. AITAP was also how I first connected to the YMCA Youth Parliament.

  • Consulting with Children and Young People About Alcohol
    1 June 2011 Literature review: Consulting with children and young people about alcohol. Background Alcohol consumption has been identified as a priority issue for the Commissioner for Children and Young People (‘the Commissioner’). As part of the Commissioner’s wellbeing research, children and young people expressed ‘concern about the impact of alcohol on their families and friends and on their ability to enjoy recreational activities and feel safe in public areas’.1 The Commissioner intends to work with children and young people and other agencies to investigate effective strategies to reduce alcohol-related harm. One of the main projects to be undertaken in this regard is a large scale consultation with children and young people about alcohol consumption and risking drinking behaviour. In order to provide background material for that consultation project, a number of relevant consultations that have been undertaken by others are detailed below. As far as possible, studies have been selected that focus on children and young people under the age of 18 years; however, there are a number of studies that have involved consultations with young people both below and above the age of 18 years as well as some studies which have involved consultations with children and young people as one aspect of a much broader consultation and review process. Moreover, wherever possible, projects that include consultations with young people about possible solutions to risky or problematic drinking behaviour or, at the very least, consider young people’s attitudes towards alcohol consumption have been included (rather than consultations that only document the prevalence and volume of alcohol consumption).
