Life Lessons With A Lunchbox: Emily Mascaro (2018)
Emily Mascaro graduated from Santa Maria College in 2018. She is an international road cyclist who has competed all over Australia and in Europe. She spoke to Year 7 and 8 girls at Life Lessons With A Lunchbox.
Meeting Emily was definitely something everyone needs to do. She is such an inspiration. We learnt so much about how she balanced her time at school with her cycling life. She also gave us some good tips about organisation and managing our time. Emily encouraged us to follow our passions but that we need to be prepared to work towards our goals.
Life Lessons With Lunchbox was truly one of our favourite lunchtimes and we had a tasty lunch!
