My Occupational Identity

One aspect of my occupational identity is made up from my role in my wider family-as a granddaughter, niece and

cousin

These pictures show a different role within the family unit-as a sister.

The family farm makes up part of my identity as it is where I grew up and return to every summer.

Netball has been a large part of my life and being a ‘netballer’ and ‘sportsperson’ is one of the ways I am identified

Dunedin Student; this is one of the most influencing factors on my life as it what I am currently spending my time on.

Being a flatmate is a key part of my identity as it is really like my second home

Working as a woolhandler is a part of my identity as it my main occupation over the summer and holiday months.

Explorer- although I have not travelled extensively overseas (yet), I have seen many places in New Zealand and feel that this is a part of who I am

Being a member of the Tramping Club during school shaped my ‘school identity’ and is an occupation I continue with today.

As a (Very) amateur skier; this activity has allowed me to make great friends and to learn about myself
