Rosa & Jarom go off to Japan in 2019

Rosa Joiner/Jarom Rowell —

Four Kaurilands students were nominated by Kaurilands' senior teachers to be part of the selection process for the 2019 Asia-Pacific Children’s Convention in July in Japan. The Principal of GEIS, Mrs Stavert, a GEIS teacher and two students were interviewing all of the students who had been selected from different schools in our rohe. It was their job to select the final four children who would be travelling to Japan as Ambassadors of Auckland at the convention. The convention promotes world peace and global citizenship through cultural exchange. Out of sixteen students interviewed, two were chosen from Kaurilands! Jarom Rowell and Rosa Joiner will be heading to the APCC with two other students and a teacher from GEIS for two weeks. They will be with a host family for one week and at an amazing camp for the other week. They are both really excited about their adventure. Thanks to our wonderful school for helping grow such awesome kids!
