Sarai’a Hoffman Houia

Course: Adventure Tourism Leadership
Year: Level 2
School: Marlborough Girls’ College

When Sarai’a was asked what the highlight was for her on the Adventure Tourism block course with Whenua Iti Outdoors, she was quick to say it was caving. “It was really fun”. Sarai’a also enjoyed meeting new people from other schools and the sea kayaking.

Being outdoors in the beautiful Golden Bay as her classroom has been fantastic. Sarai’a has really enjoyed the friendly tutors who she says “you can talk to about anything at any time”.

Taking part in the programme has also helped Sarai’a make decisions about her future. “The course has been a great experience and helped me make up my mind about studying adventure tourism next year in either Nelson or Queenstown.”
