Kia ora koutou,

Ko Hauraki tōku turangawaewae
Ko te awa o Hikutaia e tiaki ana tōku whānau
Ko te kohatu o Maratoto e pupuri ana tōku manawa
He pākehā ahau, engari kei te ngana ahau kia tautoko, kia marama, kia whakanui te ao Māori.

Hi everyone, I'm from Hauraki, Hikutaia to be precise, and although I am pākehā, I try to celebrate te ao Māori as much as I can.

It's great being a teacher at Kōrakonui. We have wonderful staff, who work tirelessly to provide a very high standard of teaching and learning. I'm very lucky to be able to teach Year 7 & 8 students in Bayley classroom this year.

Outside of school, I spend time with my partner and my soon to be, two children. We hunt, fish, dive, and play squash to pass the time.
