Kelsey Hawthorn started in the Marsden State High School Deadly Unit in 2017 as an ARTIE Academy Tutor as part of her University prac commitment.
Kelsey was studying to be a teacher and did her hours as a tutor at Marsden State High School encouraging and assisting the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students in Years 7, 8 and 9 with their literacy and numeracy skills.
