American Field Scholarships Robin Kora Among the 54 secondary school pupils chosen to travel to America in July to study for one year in American schools under Field Service Scholarships are two Maori students, Robin Kora of Te Aute College and Serena Maheno of Kaitaia College. Serena, whose parents are Nelson and Marigold Maheno, has taken a commercial course and is a prefect at her college. She enjoys playing basketball, hockey and baseball, and watching rugby, and has a variety of hobbies including dancing, record-playing, reading, riding and window-shopping. Serena hopes to take up as a career either commercial teaching or office work. Robin Kora's parents Peter and Betty (nee Waitere) come from Wanganui River and Levin respectively. Robin's sports are rugby, tennis, softball, athletics and swimming, and he too has many interests—photography, forums, watching people, walking, driving, reading, shooting, flying, drama, concert-party work, and listening to classical records. He is Te Aute College's head prefect. We wish them both success in their studies.
