WHAT were you doing when you were seven years old?<\/p>\n
Well, Circe Moloney-Wise was gearing up for time behind the microphone, the youngest ever member of School Broadcasting Network\u2019s Primary Perspectives radio show, a program that\u2019s just marked 500 weeks on-air.<\/p>\n
Primary Perspectives is hosted exclusively by young people and gives them the chance to discuss topics and issues that matter to their age-group. It was first aired the program in Melbourne in 2010.<\/p>\n
Alongside her work with the radio show, Cerci has worked on television programs, music videos, TV commercials and in theatre productions.<\/p>\n
Circe said the SBN has provided countless opportunities to her, including international trips to broadcast track and field events in the United States.<\/p>\n
\u201cI went to New York when I was in grade 4 and again when I was in grade 6, where I got to interview a lot of Jamaican Americans and got to watch Usain Bolt race,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Alongside her mother Virginia Wise, Circe co-authored and did voice work for Google Home\u2019s Tell Me A Story platform in 2018.<\/p>\n
Both mother and daughter agreed that the experience brought them closer together, with Cerci finding the voice-over work humorous.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s funny looking back, as I had to say the exact same sentence over and over again while also covering my mouth when I said the letter \u2018P\u2019 because apparently it sounded funny,\u201d Cerci said.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s great to hear these stories come to life, but the whole experience recording them was so weird.\u201d<\/p>\n
Circe now attends Loreto College, where she is a member of the junior choir and speaks on the debating team.<\/p>\n
