A first-year boilermaking apprentice says he spent years of his high schooling life engineering a future for himself at the sugar mills.
Callum Lenke said there were many surprises but the size of his new workplace at Proserpine Mill was one he did not expect.
âWhen you look out from the streets as you drive past, it doesnât look this big, and then when you get inside itâs massive â heaps of things going on,â Mr Lemke said.
He will spend the next four years as an apprentice boilermaker at Wilmarâs Proserpine Mill â a goal he has been working towards during his schooling years.
