Woodend,Canterbury

Summary

In December 2023 I completed year 13 at Rangiora New Life School as Head boy. I believe I was given this responsibility due to my people skills, being able to get along with everyone regardless of age, gender and beliefs. In 2019, 2020 and 2023 I received Top Diligence Award for my year. This award is given to those who consistently show great work ethics and always striving to do their best. In 2021 I was Deputy House Leader and in 2022 I became House Leader. I currently hold a full class 1 license as well as owning a reliable vehicle. I also have achieved gaining my Comprehensive First Aid certificate. I am aware of health and safety in the work place due to previously working in a fast pace kitchen environment.
