In the lead up to International Women's Day we had the honour of interviewing our remarkable young women in Catholic schools living life to the full who are planning to make a difference in the world. 

“One thing adults can do better for young women is just listen – listen to their ideas, listen to the opportunities they want to have, give back and communicate.” – Sophie Highmore, Mary Mackillop College

“For me being a woman is about expressing yourself and not being afraid to push boundaries, doing what you love, and being yourself,” – Natasha Silver, Merici College

“My teachers and peers have always told me ‘yes, you can – there’s nothing stopping you,’ so when I get into the real world and someone says ‘you can’t do that’, I won’t take it.” – Analise Greenhalgh, St Clare’s College

“Being a woman in 2018 is one of the most amazing things, but we still have a long way to go in terms of equal rights.” – Mateja Kostrica, St Francis Xavier College 

“I’m fully capable of reaching my dream one day and many girls should feel the same.” – Cecilija Matic, St John Paul II College
