Leah Powick, former NZIS student, has been granted two scholarships to attend Concordia Irvine University in the USA. They are a track and field scholarship and an academic scholarship for a four-year degree.
Leah studied at NZIS Christchurch and completed her Health and Fitness Personal Trainer Level 4 certificate.
"This helped with my Concordia Irvine application, showing a willingness to learn, it complements the degree." Says Leah.
