Rhea Ratgali wins lower South Island Race Unity Speech Awards

“We are all in the same waka, we’re all in the same canoe, no matter what ethnicity or colour we are.”

That was one of the messages Year 13 student Rhea Ratgali delivered in her speech in this year’s lower South Island Race Unity Speech Awards in Dunedin. Rhea walked away as the regional champion and competed at the national semifinals last Friday.

 
Well done Rhea!
