Wyndham’s youth of the month for June, 19 year old student and volunteer, Emily Leahy, tells Cade Lucas what Werribee means to her.
1) What’s your connection to Werribee?
I have lived in Werribee for nearly eight years. I have experience working in
hospitality in Werribee. I volunteer at a local Girl Guide unit as
a unit helper, I also volunteer at Headspace Werribee advocating for young
people and always try my best to make sure young people’s voices are heard. I play netball
and socialise with friends in the community.

2) What do you like about where you live?
One thing I like about where I live is that I am close to top locations such as well
known schools, Werribee Mansion and Werribee Range Zoo.
3) What, if anything, would you change about where you live?
One fun fact about me is that I love sushi, so if I could change one thing about
where I live it would be that Watton St would have a Sushi shop.
4) Where is your favourite local place to spend time?
My favourite local place to spend time would probably be the Village Cinemas, as I
can see the new horror movies that have come out. Another favourite local place I
love spending time would probably be along the Werribee River with my favourite
music playing.
5) Tell us something people would be surprised to know about you…
The fun fact that people would be surprised to know about me is that I am
surrounded by brothers at home. Another fun fact would be that I am always
planning the gateway.
