Wallsend high school student Shaye Quinn has been singing since she was a toddler. Her mum, Vanessa, remembers her and her sister singing along to Abba as young children, and the performing spirit has never left.
In August, Shaye will board an international flight for the first time in her life, and travel to Florida to sing at Disney World after impressing judges at a Sydney talent scouting competition earlier this year.
