Today the LNP team has announced tough & comprehensive new plans to crackdown on youth crime across Queensland.

It was great to catch up with Ben (local chaplain) whilst I was out and about in the electorate. The students see Ben as their big brother, someone they can talk to and discuss their concerns. Over the years he has helped many students in their time of need. Just finished up at a community meeting, home time and reply to emails.

Education Ministers from around Australia have agreed; Students will be given a chance to obtain a Queensland Certificate of Education in 2020. There will not be a year 13.

Quang Long Bradley thank you for your 20 years as a school Chaplain at Helensvale State High School and Helensvale State School. You have helped so many students over the years and our community is forever grateful for your dedication.
