Aleksia Junge | Sport

TANNER FAMILY

Hello! My name is Aleksia Junge and I am 17 and in Year 13 at Waikato Diocesan School. My chosen discipline is hockey goalkeeping, and I am very dedicated and driven to excelling in this field. I currently play for the Waikato Dio 1st XI and enjoyed a successful campaign with the Waikato U18 A team, where we came 4th in New Zealand at the National U18 tournament in Wellington. Following my success in Wellington I was invited by Hockey New Zealand to attend the NZ U18 camp.
Academically I am due to start a degree in 2022 in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Waikato, where through this I hope to pursue a career in Aerospace Engineering.
Outside of academics and sporting pursuits I am interested in visual arts, music (more specifically drums) and the outdoors.
I am someone who sets very high standards for themselves with big goals, and I would greatly appreciate the support of the Adastra Foundation to assist me in all of my future endeavors to achieve these.
