Agribusiness - brand new course to be offered in 2018

Jill Armstrong —

This is a new and exciting course offered in New Zealand secondary schools in 2018 brought about by the massive skills shortage of graduates in Agribusiness now and in the future. 

Kavanagh College is one of the first schools to introduce this course for NCEA Level 2. This academic course exposes students to the wide range of skills required and the career opportunities available in the primary sector beyond the farm gate. It is designed for students who excel in science and/or commerce subjects.

On Open Day, as a promotion for this new course, deep fried locusts were on offer- there were many takers for this alternate food of the future.
