Issue 5

After almost a year it is astonishing to see how our community has grown. As we release more issues it is amazing to see more people getting involved, from the writers and students featured in these articles to everyone who works behind the scenes, taking photos, finding topics, interviewing people and putting in the work to bring everything together. This magazine has managed to bring together young people from across different schools to work on a collective goal: to highlight the achievements of young people in the Northern Territory.

Society often has the need to pull down people who reach the spotlight and stand above the crowd: tall poppy syndrome. The NTSS is dedicated to changing this view. The people in these articles and those who work behind the scenes are extraordinary and brave,
unapologetically showing their successes. We hope the Student Spotlight is able to inspire others to embrace their individuality and achievements, being unafraid to stand out.
