Our Year 12 Legal Studies class had the privilege of interviewing the following members from the community in relation to their Inquiry Task:

• Helene Chryssidis | Fox Tucker Lawyers, Solicitor
• Michelle Fernando | Senior Lecturer, University of SA
• Rob Chalmers | Lecturer, Flinders University Law School
• Melissa Yule | Adelta Legal, Solicitor
• Lecia Wood | Fox Tucker Lawyers, Solicitor
• Rick Sarre | Emeritus Professor of Law, University of SA

To be able to have these lawyers in one room at the one time was an exciting experience and I know the students gained an immeasurable amount of knowledge and insight from their expertise in being able to answer questions relating to the legal issues the students were investigating.

I wish to thank all the guest speakers this year and look forward to many more that will come into the Year 12 Legal Studies classes over the coming year. Legal Studies is a subject that Concordia students study with great interest and passion. It allows for honest discussion about contemporary legal issues that occur on a daily basis.
