Mainfreight Scholarships

On the 12th of March 2013 Bairds Mainfreight Primary School celebrated its 20 year partnership with Mainfreight.

This was the highlight of the year.

During the celebration assembly Kevin Drinkwater, CIO of Mainfreight, made a very special announcement about a new initiative called Mainfreight Scholarships.

From 2013 onwards Mainfreight will award scholarships to up to five secondary school students each year. Mainfreight will also award scholarhips for up to three tertiary students as well.

This means that in five years time up to twenty five secondary and nine tertiary students who attended Bairds Mainfreight Primary School could be being supported by the scholarships.
