Cook Islanders Lindsay Graham, John Strickland and Iain Howard, who work for Air New Zealand and reside in New Zealand, flew in to connect with students at the Careers Expo Day.
Te Mata Patai, a Year 12 student at Tereora College, said the Air New Zealand and Ministry of Marine Resources booths were her favourite.
“I’ve always wanted to travel and I love the ocean,” Patai said.
