Bree Lohse, Victoria

Bree originally connected with the Yarrawonga Mulwala Community & Learning Centre when working at a child care service. Needing to show she was studying for an early childhood qualification, Bree enrolled in the Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care, which she completed in October 2023.

Initially taking on the study because it was required, Bree came to realise during the course that she had found her passion – something she says she would not have done without returning to study.

Now undertaking her Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care, Bree is hoping to be able to continue to complete a bachelor’s degree so she can ultimately either work as an early childhood teacher or leader. Regardless of how she continues her learning journey, Bree knows that she loves and wants to continue studying, as she feels she has a lot to learn and a lot to offer.
