ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING 2015

We held our annual general meeting on October 7th, which was a great opportunity to get our board, staff and stakeholders from the education and skills sector together and report back on the work we have been doing in the 2014/2015 financial year.

We were privileged to have Professor Stephen May from The University of Auckland as our key-note speaker, an internationally-recognised language in education expert. Stephen May discussed how our education system, community and business could effectively build on language strengths in the super diverse city. Click here to view his presentation.
