Students are London bound
Out of a pool of 500 students from across the world, the two Cobram Secondary College seniors have been selected to attend the prestigious London International Youth Science Forum 2025.
Adithi Gurunathan and Taylar Knight will get the chance to listen to Nobel Prize-winning scientists speak about their field, learn in world-class laboratories and network with other curious minds from up to 80 countries around the world.
The coveted program is held at the Imperial College London each year, and includes trips to nearby Cambridge and Oxford Universities.
The news arrived just weeks after Adithi, Taylar and schoolmate Kail Turner returned from Queensland and Canberra, where the trio participated in the National Youth Science Festival.
Milk factory operating again
Tongala’s historic milk factory site will soon be operating five days a week after securing contracts with three companies whose products will be stocked on the shelves of supermarket giants Woolworths and Costco.
Flavoured milk products and, in the near future, a fruit cheese product will be produced at the Bosse Rd factory by what is expected to be a staff of 30.
And, by the start of 2028, Tongala Nutrition founder and chief executive Siddharth Jani hopes to be producing export quality products from the site.
The first product to be produced at Tongala Nutrition is a blended milk product that supports the extraordinary fundraising effort of marathon runner Nedd Brockmann.
Brockmann is a 24-year-old electrician from Forbes who is supporting the homeless by running across Australia.
Seventy per cent of the factory is now being used by Tongala Nutrition to prepare for its impending growth, with its sales team, engineering department and laboratory all on site.
