2023 Youth Leadership

Annie Zhou

Annie, a Year 10 student at Caulfield Grammar School, has consistently demonstrated exceptional leadership skills and made significant contributions to the Monash community.

Annie's outstanding initiative, Moneywise, deserves special recognition. Recognising the lack of resources and opportunities for financial literacy education in local primary schools, Annie took it upon herself to consult with financial literacy experts and design original and comprehensive lesson materials.

She provided fun worksheets covering budgeting, saving and spending, investment and responsible money management that made financial literacy interesting and easy to understand for primary school-aged children.

Annie has also been involved in the Monash Youth Committee and has been a Monash Youth Ambassador. This year she will be a Victorian delegate at the United Nations National Conference.
