A tour of Rotorua's key construction sites has given high schoolers all the information they need about what the building industry has to offer.
Rotorua Boys' High School student Kaylen Rongo-Apanui, 18, was one of a group of students from Rotorua schools who took part in the Building and Construction Industry Training Organisation's Big Construction Tour today, visiting construction firms and sites.
"It's helped give me information about what I need, some key aspects of the industry, and pretty much just given me a step ahead of some other people who haven't had this opportunity," Kaylen said.
The tour was hosted in 13 other locations across New Zealand. This year marked the tour's second run.
