We ordered some breakfast which was generously paid for by Sam, and then we sat down and we all told stories about ourselves and where we came from. After our stories, we shared some quotes/ one-liners that we like to live by. Mine are ‘everything happens for a reason’ and ‘treat others how you would like to be treated’, and George’s was ‘life is good’. It was really cool to listen to Sam; he had lots of valuable information for us about leadership, as well as some inspiration. 2 8 MARCH 2018 University Presentation Visits Youth Advisory Group Our Year 13 students will have the opportunity to meet with a range In early February, I flew to Wellington for the first meeting of the of University Liaison Officers during the term.

Tired of seeing Dan Carter in his undies? Didn't think so. But now, thanks to a major sponsorship deal with Jockey, you'll get to see more top rugby players showing off their modelling skills. Jockey has announced today a three-year sponsorship deal with the All Blacks and All Blacks Sevens teams. The contract will see the underwear brand as the official off-field underwear sponsor of both teams. Jockey has also announced that Carter, the original rugby poster boy, has been given the role of Jockey International Global Ambassador. He says he'll be stepping away from the camera to become a spokesman for the company. "The timing is right for the All Blacks and All Black Sevens to take it from here," said Carter. A marketing expert said Jockey was obviously keen to have the All Blacks' success rub off on the company and help create a bigger brand presence and more sales.
