Alumni News
This week's alumni focuses on Grace Robb, a St Joseph's Regional College graduate from the Class of 2020. Grace moved seamlessly into the Royal Australian Air Force after finding her love for that life whilst undertaking the ADF Gap Year in 2021. During that year, she was awarded Dux of Air Force Security Common Course 0017, after which she commenced her Bachelor of Law (Hons) in 2022 through QUT (Queensland University of Technology) . Grace is the first in her family to take on post-school education.
‘After taking legal studies in year 11, I have been interested in the subject since then. It wasn’t until I joined the Air Force and received briefs from legal officers within the organisation did I realise that that was what I wanted to pursue in my career. After further research, I realised that even if I was to change my mind, a Bachelor of Law can lead to multiple different careers paths. I love taking different subjects that I enjoy and learning about the different fields of law.’
Grace recounts a couple of proud moments. ‘The first moment is when I received Dux of my course - Air Force Security. My hard work, knowledge, dedication and teamwork had been recognised. The second was when I first began my degree and was working full time and studying full time. I realised I was capable of more than I give myself credit for.’
