Qantas Short Film Competition The Vision Splendid Outback Film Festival is calling for emerging filmmakers to apply by June 21 for the 2016 Qantas Short Film prize pool. The contest is designed to bring Australian outback inspired content to the silver screen, offering unique film opportunities for students and independent film makers. My name is Felicity Sharp. My family is from Mundubbera. My parents chose to send me to St Luke’s Anglican School to further my education for my senior high schooling. My host family has given me a safe, comfortable home whilst I board with them and complete my education at St Luke’s. Since starting the program I have become more independent rather than relying on my parents to provide for me. It’s a fantastic opportunity to learn at a great school and it has given me more confidence for my future. I’d thoroughly recommend the program to other teenagers, as it’s great to meet new people and you still get to go home on weekends to see your family. Felicity Sharp, Year 11 - St Luke’s.
