BOP Polytechnic Peter Bulfield Memorial Scholarships (Business Administration)
Mr Peter Bulfield was a dedicated and long-serving tutor of business administration and NZIM programmes at the Bay of Plenty Polytechnic. He taught accounting at Tauranga Boys' High School before the polytechnic even came into existence.
