Year 10 students were recently privileged to hear from Liam Spilman, a visiting IDF platoon commander, who was injured by a UAV, during his service on the Lebanese border during the current conflict. He shared his experiences with the students, giving them a greater insight into the war on the northern front.

His presentation included a video about Beit Halochem (ZDVO), an NGO which provides rehabilitation services to injured IDF soldiers, as well as a photo slide presentation about his story.

Toward the end of his presentation, Year 8 students Gemma and Romy, representing their entire year level, said a few words welcoming Liam, and passed on to him cards of support for and solidarity with injured IDF soldiers.
