Building the future leaders of Mahurangi is dirty work.
Eighteen students from Mahurangi College trudged their way through an obstacle course this month as part of a leadership programme run by Snells Beach youth service, Springboard.
The Auckland Council funded programme works with students who are high achievers and students preparing to transition into the workforce.
Springboard also hosted a breakfast seminar at the Bridgehouse, where industry leaders from Auckland spoke to Mahurangi and Rodney College students about how they can achieve their goals in the workplace.
The mentors included Vodafone Foundation chair Antony Welton, entrepreneur Rodney Macdonald, arts leader Bev Adair-Beets and youth worker Dain Guttenbeil.
