Having been born and raised in the Te Awamutu district, I am excited to have ‘returned home’ as Principal at Korakonui School. Leading a school is all about the people and the relationships you build with them. I strive to build strong relationships with all stakeholders and use those relationships as a basis to build a strong culture that lets everyone become the best they can be.

Primary school should be a time for fun, learning, exploration and success. Children deserve a multitude of fantastic experiences that allow them to grow to become everything they, their whānau and wider community desire them to be. As a Principal, I have a passion for providing the support, encouragement and resourcing to make this happen.

I am a passionate and enthusiastic Principal who enjoys the challenges of the role and relishes the opportunity to engage with children, parents and communities. I love being a hands on Principal and enjoy being involved in creating fantastic learning experiences for our students so they can achieve their full potential.
