New Partnerships


New Partnerships

This week Learning Cloud proudly became a member of the Australian Marine Conservation Society (AMCS), a charity who has been protecting Australian ocean wildlife since 1965!

Focusing on the protection on threatened ocean wildlife (such as sharks, seals and whales), they also fight to protect our coasts from inappropriate development, make our fisheries sustainable, reduce marine pollution and create large marine sanctuaries.

Among their achievements, the AMCS have:
·         Contributed to the global ban of commercial whaling
·         Lead the campaign to have the Great Barrier Reef secured as a marine park (later recognised as a world heritage area)
·         Won a successful international court case against Japanese whaling -just to name a few!

Not only will Learning Cloud contribute toward the great work being done by the AMCS, but we will also be offering some exciting scholarships and work experience for eligible students in the coming year! Stay tuned for more details!

You can learn more at http://www.marineconservation.org.au/ and contribute by signing petitions, fundraising, volunteering, and of course DONATING! You can even do some Christmas shopping at the site, with proceeds going toward marine conservation.


Student profile
Name: Romanah Jayne Warry
Age: 17
Location: QLD

Romanah has recently completed her Certificate in Animal Husbandry in an impressive 7 months as part of her HSC.  She says being able to study something to do with animals as part of her schooling has made it a lot more enjoyable, as this has always been something she is passionate about.

As part of the course she got to go to several farms and broaden her knowledge on animal health.

On the completion of her recent studies, Romanah has recently accepted a scholarship with Longreach Pastoral College, where she will be studying a Diploma inExtensive Livestock Production next year.

CONGRATULATIONS ROMANAH! (and make sure you stay in touch!)
