It is with sadness that we bid farewell to Bob Gammelin. Bob has been working with the rūnanga for nearly two years, as the student engagement advisor. He and his family have decided to return back to their home in Wyoming, America. Bob has brought a lot to his role and will be sadly missed. He has worked with many students and has had a high achievement rate of success with them. We wish Bob, Liz and their family safe travels and hope to see them again in the future.
