Save the Date! Rangi’s Second Annual Careers & Pathways Exploration Evening Coming Term 2

Event to be Held in Atawhai, Thursday, June 8, 2023

Following the success of last year’s first ever Careers & Pathways Exploration Evening, the Careers & Pathways office will be bringing the event back this year, this time utilising our amazing new multipurpose centre, Atawhai!

With over 60 participants and more than 250 attendees, last year’s event set the precedent and this year we’ll be aiming to increase both the number of participants and attendees. We’ll be implementing suggestions from those who attended last year in order to assure that this year’s Careers & Pathways Exploration Evening is one not to miss for students and their whānau, so make sure to mark the date in your diaries—Thursday, June 8 from 3:30pm to 5:30pm.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Make a Difference in the Health System

Te Whatu Ora Waitaha Youth Advisory Council (Formerly known as Canterbury District Health Board (CDHB) Youth Advisory Council) is searching for students to serve on its board.

The YAC is a group of rangatahi who voluntarily advocate for 12 to 24 year olds in the Canterbury health system. Each member has a lived experience in the health system or advocates on behalf of a friend or whānau member who uses the health system. The YAC team does a wide variety of things from creating youth health resources to running education events to providing professional development for health professionals to working alongside other local and national health organisations.

The YAC is currently recruiting for rangatahi between the ages of 16 to 24 years old who may have an interest in making a difference in the health system.
