A special moment for our team this week 🌟 Living Legends has been honoured as a Valued Industry Partner at the Hume Whittlesea LLEN Vocational Education Awards — a recognition that means so much to us. Through our Learning With Legends program, we open our gates to over 100 students every year — from high school to university — all eager to learn about equine care, welfare, and their journey of life after racing. Watching the next generation step into this community we have created with curiosity and compassion is something we’re incredibly proud of. 💛 Pictured with Adele and Molly is Mila, one of our VCE Vocational Major students who completed her placement at Living Legends. Seeing students like Mila grow, learn, and find confidence around our horses is one of the most rewarding parts of what we do. Thank you to Hume Whittlesea LLEN for recognising the work we’re so passionate about, and to every student who has shared their learning journey with us. Here’s to many more years of inspiring futures. ✨ #livinglegends #livinglegendsau #workplacement #learningwithlegends #lovethehorse #lifeafterracing #workexperience #discoverhume #visitvictoria #touristattraction #voluntaryexperience #learningthroughlegends #hwllen
