Evening all!

This week the latest Home Study list is out – embedded at the bottom of this letter on our site – and Charlotte has a whole lot of career notices.

The 75 of you who came with us down to Dunedin for the visit to the Tertiary Open day were a delight to spend time with. Thanks for your company – and we hope the exposure to the University and Polytech gave you a starting point to start to build some plans for next year and beyond.

Remember you don’t have to know what you’re going to be when you grow up. You just have to know who you are now, and what floats your boat.

Notices:
