[00:01:08] Hi, I'm Ruth Miller principal of Yeppoon State High School. I'd like to send a warm welcome to our international students. By attending Yeppoon High you're guaranteed an incredibly rich, cultural experience. We offer a diverse curriculum which includes marine studies, aquatics, Ag-science (agricultural science) and a wide range of sports as well as our award winning instrumental music program.
