The joint winners of the 2021 Advance Ashburton Leader’s Scholarship have been announced: Tiipene Philip and Kaylib Gorrie

Chair of the Foundation, Mary Ross, said the calibre of this year’s applications was so high that a joint award was made. One of the selection panel, Sir Graeme Harrison, helped fund the second award, to a total of $15,000.

Tiipene, a Warden and Trustee at the Hakatere Marae and Kahui Across School Teacher at the College, will use the scholarship to help improve capacity and leadership for Māori services provided on a volunteer basis for people of all ethnicities in the district.
Kaylib, Deputy Principal at Mt Hutt College, will continue his masters of Educational Leadership at Canterbury University, and develop his Wellbeing Tool currently on trial at the College.

Both men were humbled by the award and reaffirmed their ambition to help and support our district through their leadership roles.
