CurtinAHEAD will present the inaugural Clontarf to Curtin Rowing Regatta this Friday.

Curtin has recently helped guide Clontarf Aboriginal College students through an academic mentoring and State level rowing program with the aim to offer the students greater access to higher education opportunities and break down barriers to participation in elite sports.

The regatta will mark the culmination of the hard work and will celebrate the achievements of the students who have formed Clontarf’s first rowing squad.
