Female secondary students from across the South East were treated to an inspirational breakfast hosted by the City of Casey on Friday 28 April.
The 22nd Annual Girl Guides Victoria Women of Note Casey Mentor Breakfast hosted 75 young women, along with guest speaker Alison Saville.
The breakfast was an opportunity for young women to network and build contacts, as well as be inspired to reach their full potential in their careers.
The students had a chance to meet with and connect to women in various industries and professions and gain a better understanding of potential career paths.
Ms Saville’s success in industries ranging from thoroughbred breeding to fashion entrepreneurialism, inspired the young attendees to follow their passion.
The breakfast also saw Kaila Baxter from St. Francis Xavier College presented with the Kay Rankin Inspirational Young Woman Award.
The Year 11 student was nominated by her school for the award and will be presented with a $250 cheque.
