Katarina Djolic

20 March 2024

I congratulate Katarina Djolic from Greenway Park Public School on her outstanding achievements in public speaking. On Friday 20 October, year 3 student Katarina represented her school and her community at the State final of the NSW Multicultural Perspectives Public Speaking Competition. After claiming victory in both the district and regional finals, Katarina was one of 10 finalists from across the State, out of the 10,000 who entered the competition. She delivered a fantastic speech called "A safe place to call home" and even spoke impromptu on the topic "Impossible". Katarina's passion for public speaking has even seen her take out the Junior Academic category at the 2023 Liverpool Young Champions Awards, which I was fortunate enough to attend. I congratulate Katarina on her outstanding achievements. In addition to these accomplishments, she is also her class representative at School Parliament. Who knows, one day we may even see her in this Parliament.
