Tonight our guest speaker is Jesse Barnett. Jessie is a 14year old student at Kambrya College.
Jesse will be attending wth Carmel Ukena who is a teacher at Kambrya College.
 
Jesse has High functioning Autism and is still able to show excellent leadership being voted class captain every single year at the school. He excels given responsibility and enjoys a challenge. Jessie does get exhausted blocking out noise in the background and at times struggles with talking with his own peers.
 
Jesse is excellent with his manners and assisting students with any problems they are having. Jesse is great with participating in school leadership with ANZAC days ie raising and lowering flag for school at assembly. Jesse is always trustworthy and reliable and very responsible. He has a very mature manner and always assists teachers with any requests.
Ms Ukena says he was extremely helpful when she had computer issues with Microsoft teams teaching Science. Jesse always had patience to help me when I got stuck and the other students as well.
 
Through out the three years Ms Ukena has known Jesse he has always shown interest in helping the community. The last two years Jesse has shown a deep desire to get involved in Politics to make the community a better place to live in.
 
Jesse’s smile and enthusiasm is contagious and very heart felt. He always tries to improve things for students at Kambrya College and Ms Ukena is confident that moving onto his local community will be a natural progression. Jesse is extremely hard working and has much energy to put towards his goal of getting into politics. He is genuine and real and has a photographic memory that simply would put many of our current politicians.
 
All Jesse needs is an opportunity from Berwick Rotary Club to see how he can make an incredible difference in his local community, like he has at Kambrya College.
