Hi, I’m Amelia Adams, I’m the Senior US correspondent for Channel Nine News, currently based in Los Angeles but my job takes me all over the place.. prior to this pos ng I spent two years as our Europe & Middle East Correspondent. I am a Roseville girl, I loved my years at Roseville, I was not always a model student, I had my moments.. but it’s crazy to think in 1999 I was si ng where you are, at my own Valedictory Assembly, although it wasn’t virtual, the world was a very di erent place. I was s ll 17, and I s ll didn’t really know where I was headed career wise, I took a year o to travel and work and party, and then went o to study journalism, and here I am. You’ve had the best start at Roseville, but it’s not easy out there. If you want something, you’ll have to go for it, work hard and most of all, be the person that everyone wants on their team, be kind and commi ed. It’s a really strange me in the world, I’m nding there’s a lot of anger, lot of despair with covid lockdowns and people being separated. Im guessing you’ve endured your nal year without par es, or travel, holidays.. and that’s really tough.. but just know that the rest of the world is actually open and func oning many places pre y much as normal. This is not forever, the world will open up to you.. I’ve just nished an extraordinary month in which I covered the end of the war in Afghanistan, a category four Hurricane, historic ooding in New York, and spent several days staked outside Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s mansion. So, the world is a fascina ng place… and I hope you can block out some of the noise and enjoy what should be a really exci ng me for all of you. One nal thought; Ive made plenty of mistakes and bad decisions… at school, and in rela onships, and in my career.. don’t sweat them, and don’t give up. Learn from them and then move on. Easier said than done, I know. Today’s a huge milestone, it’s one I remember really fondly. Congratula ons to every single one of you, and good luck out there.
