School expos & outreach engagement
We love spreading the word about our project and opportunities in STEAM pathways. We know that schools can’t always visit us onsite so we head out when we can to speak to rangatahi.

During this engagement held in Manukau, students became young scientists. They tested the quality of water samples collected from our onsite water plant treatment using a Turbidity meter, pH meter, and a Clarity/Secchi tube. Over 200 students took part, working in groups to find out if water samples would be safe to go into the stormwater system.
Four Link Alliance rangatahi shared their career experiences and described the initiatives that had supported and kept them engaged in employment with Link Alliance. Their valuable voices provided insights and lesson for students and employers.

A group from Glenfield College were inspired about what they heard from our team, and we invited them along to see the work in action on a site vist. In September they visited Te Waihorotiu (Aotea) Station site and were fortunate to see Dame Whina Cooper TBM in it’s final state having just completed its journey.

I thoroughly enjoyed the trip last year and it was every bit as good this year. Thank you for the opportunity to build an ongoing relationship with City Rail Link and for your welcoming and engaging staff and activities. We felt moved by the time and thought you had put in to making the visit memorable for the boys.
We love visiting the Link Alliance and the students really enjoyed their time. Some of the students were on their second visit and were amazed at the difference in the worksite. They chatted all the way back to school and seem to have a good sense of what they saw.
