We'd love you to check out this snippet from the graduating recital of Melbourne Contemporary student @brontemorrison. Bronte started preparing for a live recital at the start of Study Period 2, but lockdown forced her and her band to find a new way to present her work. ⁠
⁠
We are so proud of all our students who continually step up and create such incredible work together - even while we're apart!⁠

For some helpful resources on how to keep the convo going in a mindful and helpful way, head to @ruokday.

And if YOU are needing someone to talk to remember, our Student Wellbeing team are here to help.
