On Wednesday 26 June, 18 Māori and Pasifika students attended Auckland University for the Future Me event. We had a fantastic time. After a fun welcome, we all split off into different groups, allowing us to interact and collaborate with students from multiple schools. Future Me was an incredible experience for us Pasifika and Maori students, offering us a glimpse into the many opportunities at Auckland University, and providing valuable insights into our potential future careers. There were a range of workshops such as P.E, medical, and social sciences.
We particularly enjoyed the engineering workshop, as we were able to code amazing robots, build catapults, and more! The law workshop was another highlight, with its friendly environment and the chance to participate in an engaging detective game that simulated a mini court case.
