This music video was created by the students at Nerang State High School who participated in the Indie Project. The Indie Project is a fun and creative, inclusive music program and aims to build each student’s confidence in

  • decision making
  • skills and knowledge around independence 
  • and connection to their peers

 

The lyrics for this song were written by the students and include some insightful and inspiring words such as:

“My strength is in compassion, love and loyalty

You can be anything you want to be

Show the world you’re strong

I’m not afraid to find my own voice

’cause I’m writing my own song.”

 

The Indie Project is funded by The Australian Government Department of Health Disability and Ageing.
