Economist Cath Sleeman is studying for an MPhil in Economics at Cambridge University, young Culinary Challenge chef Chris White has recently finished his 'busman's holiday' working at some of NZ's top restaurants, Scott Riddle is working towards his MBA at Cranfield University - one of the UK's top business schools, museum designer Josephine Hughes is looking forward to getting to grips with her 2009 Clark Collection/Creative NZ Scholarship.
