Summary

Hi i am Anton Kerehi i love working in the Construction/ Roading Drainage or Earthmoving industry but also have alot of background involvement in the Dairy Farming industry. I have currently 6 years experience in the Construction/ Roading/Earthmoving and Drainage industries and have picked up alot of new Skills and Work Ethics since I began Most of my farm experience grew when i was 10 years old helping out on a family farm based in Opunake I Am 24 Years old with alot of knowledge in those Industries but i am always up for any challenge thrown at me. From Operating 36-20 tonne Diggers to Screeding and Paving Footpaths in my junior dayswith Higgins i enjoy doing anything Hands on but have a passion for Operating Machinery. I worked for Tatana Contracting with my older brother and Grandfather, Tatana Contracting are in my eyes one of the best drainlaying outfits in the Lower north island and they pride on the success they have fulfilled over the last 20 years, Whilst having plenty of background in the Drainage scene coming to Tatana's has really taken my knowledge and capabilities to another level. I have excellent work values and ethics that i have established of the people who taught me what i know and i highly acknowledge my Koro and my older Brother for not just the tough way of learning certain tricks of the trade more less the best way that suits your style of work in whatever industry it might be, Working next to family sometimes isn't as easy as youd like it to be but personally myself when i look back at those good times i appreciate everything i was shown and for future reference know that ive had good values istalled into me and thats why Family is something i treasure
