We then welcomed Jac Cottee (YG 1994) a Qantas Pilot, and Louise Nance (YG 2008) a Mechanical Engineer with Ford, to speak with our secondary students. Inspiring and passionate speakers they spoke of their paths after Tintern, challenges they have found in their working life, and advice for both girls and boys on the future for females in the Aviation and Engineering fields, as well as the broader workforce.
