Marcus Christensen

I’ve grown up on a farm with my parents owners of a horse and cattle farm and part owners of a successful ophthalmic business. From growing up on a farm with a strong interest in animals, I’ve grown to be compassionate, kind, bubbly and intelligent. I’m currently a year 9 student at St Edmunds College, I am very successful academically, trying hard in all areas proven by multiple academic & community service awards. I’m involved throughout the school with committees, school events, debating, choir, performing arts, service to the school and academic success leading to many academic excursions. I also strongly enjoy sport mainly soccer and tennis. In the performing arts, I play piano, act and have been in many school musicals. Through my experience throughout the school and from working in many teams I have flourished and developed many skills such as, teamwork, resilience, problem solving, communication, understanding and leadership.
