Graduate Yual Reath was grateful for the experience.
“The Whitten Project has been an amazing experience for all of us,” Mr Reath said. “We have learned so much about what leadership is and how we can show leadership in our everyday lives.”
Sessions included appearances from Western Bulldogs men’s and women’s footballers. Members also had the chance to play AFL 9s (a modified game) at half-time of a Bulldogs game.
