Cycling the career path! 🚲🍇🍷
What an awesome write up in the national Winepress magazine on the Marlborough wine industry day for the Career Navigator Programme. We’re big supporters in the foundation and what they do for our youth of Marlborough. Pulling together an educated day and diving into what the wine industry has to offer with our friends from and made for a fun day out ‘cycling the career path’ with all the students!

We feel honoured to be apart of the Graeme Di**le Foundation Marlborough Career Navigator programe and helping students dive into the career pathways of our local wine industry 🍇🍷🚲

Awesome article in the national WinePress magazine!

Big big thanks to Winepress and Penny Wardle for this neat insight into one of our recent Career Navigator experiential days! We had the best day checking out many different facets of the wine industry - from wine tourism, marketing, winemaking, cellar work and viticulture - coupled with a great day's cycle tour! 🍇🚴‍♀️

It was very cool for this year's students to connect with Career Navigator graduate, Chloe Vervaart (from the "Class of 2022") who went on to a 'cellar operations' course at NMIT and now works at Forrest Estate.

Hugest of thanks to Kat and Tayla Walker (Explore Marlborough Wine Tours), Beth Forrest (Forrest Wines) and Brock Campbell (Cloudy Bay) for making this enlightening and inspiring day possible for our ākonga (learners) 💚

The full story is a great wee read. Check out the full scoop online at 👉🏾 https://issuu.com/winepressmagazine/docs/winepress_-_november_2024/20

A few weeks back we organised a Wine Industry Day for the students of the Graeme Di**le Foundation Marlborough Career Navigator Programme! We gave 20 students a taste of what the tourism side of the wine industry looks like in Marlborough with a biking wine tour 🚲 stopping at Forrest Wines where Beth Forrest toured them around the winery 🍷 giving them a good overview on many different career opportunities in wine such as cellar hand, wine making, logistics, marketing, viticulture, cellar door, sales and an idea of the many places in the world that a career in the wine industry can take you! 🌎 The students then finished their day off at to meet Brock who showed them around the vineyard and their impressive operation 🍇 WHAT A DAY! 🤩 This week the students had their Career Navigator Program Graduation and it was awesome to hear the different parts of the wine industry that had caught the interest of some if the students!
