Good morning Valued Subscriber,
Canberrans may be familiar with the work of newly appointed secretaries Steven Kennedy and Jenny Wilkinson, set to lead the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet and Treasury, respectively. However, many outside the capital will never know their names. Miriam Webber reports on their individual career paths and the significant influence both will have on the country. Who are the five greatest Canberra Raiders of all time? The Canberra Times sports team has been on a mission to answer that question, along with the help of the Green Machine faithful. David Polkinghorne shares the results. Researchers have been looking to other Australian jurisdictions for inspiration as they seek to make the areas around Canberra schools safer for students coming and going, Nieve Walton reports. Speaking of schools, are today's students ready to fill the jobs of tomorrow? And, are they even interested in them? Nieve Walton spoke to high school students and teachers about breaking down stereotypes around STEM careers and who was suitable for them. And, as the capital continues to grow, the potential impact of that expansion on the territory's wildlife has been highlighted. Wildlife volunteers have warned that further urbanisation could lead to more injuries and deaths for local fauna, Sarah Goff-Tunks reports. It is fair to say a chilly day is on the way for Canberrans. After some morning frost, the temperature is expected to climb to only 11 degrees. Betina Hughes, senior producer |
