Former Australian PM Julia Gillard answer questions from the kids of Australia in a special Squiz Kids Q+A.In it she talks about life in an Adelaide migrant camp, her earliest memories of school, her favourite bands growing up and the women who influenced her. She speaks of the weight of responsibility she felt becoming PrIme Minister - plus the sexism she encountered along the way. But mostly she sounds a rallying cry for kids all over the country to ‘dream big’, work hard and never ever let their gender define them.
