 Waitakere
City Council Scholarships
Waitakere City Council's vision is to demonstrate ongoing
commitment towards fostering a sustainable society, creating
a city where everyone can access affordable, flexible,
creative and inspirational learning and can participate in
city life.
To ensure this vision becomes a reality Waitakere City
Council has agreed to make available a two tiered
scholarship aimed at enabling the youth in Waitakere to
participate in tertiary education and consider a career
within local government. The Scholarship Scheme will
include:
- A one year scholarship for engineering students
entering the final year of their degree.
- A school leaver scholarship focussed on supporting
local Waitakere Secondary School Leavers to enter and
complete tertiary education.
Both scholarship schemes will enable young people to have
the option of vacation employment and will bond the student
to future employment at Waitakere City Council.
More Information and your chance to apply can be found on
the
School Leaver Application Form and
Graduate
Application Form.
