NAIDOC Entrants
Rock NAIDOC would like to introduce our 2021 NAIDOC Entrants. NAIDOC week is not only a time for us all to celebrate our Culture, its a time to recognise the hard work and Achievements of the Indigenous Youth in this Community. The NAIDOC Ball is a night where we introduce the future Indigenous Leaders to the community and celebrate their achievements.

I would like to help teach kids about their culture through painting. A personal experience that has had an impact on my life has been moving away from home and learning to live independently.
Who is a person you are most inspired by and why?
James Waterton because I admire his artwork and how he helps young people in the community.

Israel Power
Mr Leadership
My name is Israel Power I am 19 years old. I am sponsored by Central Queensland Indigenous Development. I have been fortunate enough to obtain a traineeship which will lead to permanent employment with CQID. I am currently in the Youth Services Program. This will allow me to mentor, provide guidance and support our young people to access the support services they require.
Who is a person you are most inspired by and why?
My father: The reason I am inspired by my Father, Fred Power, is because he is leaving a footprint in the community. This has inspired me to strive to be like my Father and work within community to give back and help those less fortunate than me.
