PREFECT, DUX, 2008
Noelia is a remarkable young woman. Having only arrived in New
Zealand from Argentina in 2004, she was proud of her accomplishment
at being awarded Dux for her year at Aorere College in the
following year. Her commitment to academic study is exemplary and
with a particular love for French, Noelia made the top 10 in an
external French speaking competition while she was still at
Aorere.
Mark Dunlop, Training and Development Manager at Foodstuffs
Auckland recalls that in her interview to be a First Foundation
Scholar "Noelia presented herself exceptionally well as a deserving
scholarship recipient and a wonderful role model for family,
friends and community."
Having completed a Bachelor of Arts at The University of
Auckland majoring in Linguistics, Noelia's goals include gaining
further qualifications and experience in teaching languages.
Noelia was the recipient of the 2011 First Foundation Trustees
Award.
