Last year was a tough one for Ōmokoroa-based Spoffit Reid: His father died, he lost his job and he was juggling the demands of building a new home - all amid the anxieties of the Covid-19 pandemic.
But Reid (Ngāi Te Rangi) has come out the end of it with a Certificate of Small Business & Project Management, Level 4, from Te Wānanga o Aotearoa in Tauranga.
He is one of hundreds of Te Wānanga o Aotearoa tauira (students) due to attend the latest Tauranga campus graduation ceremony this Friday at Bethlehem Baptist Church.
