As the first member of his family to attend University, Nathan
is paving the way for other family members to pursue education at a
high level. At school he was known as an intelligent, dedicated
student and talented sportsman, leader and community-giver. In 2008
he was awarded Top Year 11 Scholar. In 2010 he was invited to
develop his leadership skills through attendance at the Canterbury
Young Leaders Day. Nathan consistently received praise for his
courteous nature and high personal standards.
PGG Wrightson holds Nathan in high regard and admits that their
'impression of Nathan is that of a bright young man who is
achieving academically and has the desire to further his education.
There is a sense that given the right opportunities, Nathan will
embark on a journey of incredible personal growth with the
potential to become a leader in any field'.
Nathan is currently studying a Bachelor of Engineering at The
University of Canterbury and is gearing up to also take an Honours
year in Engineering.
