This project has been incredible. An amazing and challenging journey that has left a legacy for me, the company, the city and the apprentices who were involved. A journey that has built a strong team, encouraged skills development and transfer through a deep creative process. Well done to all who were involved and took the opportunity to make this happen, thank you.
