Building Community by Investing in Youth

Riley "Coyote" - Our Newest Work Experience Student

Our newest work experience student through the Career Links pathway, Riley “Coyote” from Jesmond Callaghan College has joined our admin team during the end of August to assist with his educational studies and has done an incredible job, even earning himself his very own trophy!

On top of helping our admin team with a variety of tasks, Riley has been learning all about the behind-the-scenes of what is involved in keeping our Community Centre running, as well as learning all the staffs inside jokes and getting a taste for what he may be interested in when it comes time to leave high school.

On Coyote’s last day, our team gathered to celebrate his time with us, reflecting on the positive impact he had during his short stay, his infections enthusiasm and witty jokes which will all definitely be missed!

As he sets forth on his journey beyond high school in the next few years, we have no doubt that Riley “Coyote” will continue to display his hard work, sense of humour and sense of curiosity wherever he will go.

If you know anyone who is interested in volunteering to improve their community or is wanting to do work experience at our community centre, give us a call on (02) 4032 5500 or send us an email at admin@theplacecharlestown.org.au as we always love having new faces around!
