The Pukemiro Station Cadetship is a 2 year programme.

throughout the duration of the programme.

​

Cadets are encouraged to participate in & are supported by the Cadetship to attend outside events, such as the Golden Shears & shearing competitions, various fencing competitions, Young Farmers activities & competitions, rugby, or the sport of their choice, to name a few. They are also able to attend open days, bull walks & sales & various other activities & events that they will learn from are available.

​

 Only three - four Cadets are taken on each year so we look for

driven, hard working students that want to develop their skills

& gain the qualifications they need to have a successful career in the agriculture industry.
