On Wednesday, Greg Hellyer from Otago University, came to speak to students about scholarship applications.  Greg had great advice on how to prepare your application.  No matter what tertiary institution students are going to, now is the time to start thinking about scholarship applications.  If you know which tertiary institution you are going to, jump onto their website and look for scholarships.  There it will tell you how to apply, when applications are due and what you are entitled to.  All the scholarships that the school receives are placed on the Career Pathways Facebook page.  Year 13’s should be checking this page for regular scholarship additions.
 
Two full time jobs have come in from Bridgestone, details are on the noticeboard outside the Careers Office.
