Our tamariki at Kawerau South School deserve to have a high quality education, a place where they feel safe, a sense of pride, and one that is enjoyable. Therefore creating physical spaces, and supporting and enabling our kaiako and kaiawhina to deliver this continues to be a priority for me.  I am passionate about establishing and maintaining  an inclusive schoolwide culture that values whanaungatanga, manaakitanga, and one that promotes the importance of tuakiritanga and a sense of belonging. 

I have the privilege of teaching in our Rūma Raweke - Makerspace. This year I am also very excited to be working alongside and supporting our amazing Opunoke and Kura Tuakana!

I love learning and creating with digital tools and am passionate about ensuring our ākonga have the best opportunities to create and share their stories in different ways.
