Sponsored by the Gosford RSL, Max Potential is a Leadership Development initiative that connects the Coast’s best and brightest high school students with local community and business leaders who have been trained as coaches.
The students are given one-on-one coaching over six months including experimental workshops and delivering a community service pitch.
Guest speakers at the Celebration included the Federal Member for Robertson Dr Gordon Reid, Gosford RSL CEO Russell Cooper and Member for Gosford Leisl Tesch. They all encouraged the students to set goals and follow their dreams.
A stunning video by star of The Voice Sunrise Michelle from Narara Valley High School called “Make It Happen” was shown as winner of the Personal Expression section.
Community coach Leonie White explained her personal journey and how much being part of the program enriched her life.
Gosford High School’s star in the making Siddhartha ‘Sid’ Bezwada had the crowd in awe as he described his personal journey in the Young Adult Reflection. (We will present a special feature on Sid on our next edition).
The students, coaches and sponsors were presented with certificates by Gosford RSL President Gary Young, Russell Cooper and Leisl Tesch.
All in all an outstanding program developing our leaders of the future.
