Who are you?

Matthew Marshall, my friends call me Matt !

What church do you attend?

I go the Devonport church of Christ and help out at my youth ministry called Equip

What are your likes, dislikes, hobbies, school attending?

I like a lot of things mostly too many to list, but ill share a few. I love my music, kids and youth, being at camp, my friends and my awesome girl friend! and most of all GOD!

I don’t dislike many things but probably at the top of the list is high school musical!

I love most extreme sports and am a real adrenalin junkie so if it involves going fast, motors and water I’m there! I also love my music and play guitar in our youth band most Sunday nights.

Im on school holidays at the moment but when school starts again ill be in year 12 at Don College

 Plans for the future?

I plan to finish year 12 and go to the maritime College in Launceston and study naval architecture, or how to design boat for those who have no idea what naval architecture is.

Why are you doing the Super Squad course?

I really want to push myself further in my leadership role and see camp from a different perspective and have a chance to really serve.

Tell me about the training week you had? What did you like? What was challenging?

Training week was really fun, we did lots of activities to improve our team work and from this I learned that I am most comfortable as a leader in the group and I also learned that Alex likes to blind fold us!

It was really cool to achieve challenges as a group and to see others encounter their fears. For example troy doesn’t like heights but he still did the log on the high rope blind folded!

Overall the week was heaps of fun and it really helped us as a team to grow together. It was challenging when I had to step out of my comfort zone in the activities like the high ropes when we were blind folded.

What are you looking forward to?

Im really looking forward to running activities and supervising junior boys and just being at camp for the summer
