Blake Inspire programme

By OBHS | Posted: Thursday March 30, 2023

Congratulations to Year 12 student Flynn Wilson who has been selected to attend a 5 day Blake Inspire event in Auckland during the September school holidays.

Flynn was one of over 400 high calibre applications received. Being selected and receiving a fully funded scholarship to attend is an outstanding achievement.

Joining 34 other young leaders from throughout Aotearoa New Zealand, it will be an opportunity to learn more about environmental issues facing New Zealand while developing leadership skills in the company of like-minded people.

Below is an exert from his reference provided by the school.

This young man never shies away from a challenge. Flynn's determination to be successful is not just confined to the classroom environment. His communication skills and sense of fair play make Flynn a valued team member. Flynn displays self-discipline, and he is not one to ever let a team down.

With these attributes, Flynn is sure to succeed in his chosen field. Well done, the school community is very proud of you. We look forward to hearing all about it when you return.
