Sharlene and her family at her father’s 65th birthday. — L to r; Sharlene, Kapeneta (her mother), Tainau Fetu (her father), Semisi (fiancé at the back), Pesi (brother), Barney (brother-in-law), Summer (niece in-front holding the balloon), Wairere (niece next in-front of her mum) Lise (sister behind Wairere) and Meritian (sister-in-law).
I am the daughter of Tainau Fetu Malaeimi and Kapeneta Malaeimi and sister to Lise Wikitera, Savali Malaeimi and Pesi Malaeimi. I am a granddaughter of the late. Akaka Paga Pauta Faavae, who left this world last year on 23 December to join the Lord.
My fiancée is Semisi Tyrell.I am a proud South Aucklander from humble beginnings. I always carry my brown pride with me. I have attended Manurewa Methodist since birth. My family continue to strengthen and ground me in everything I do.
I am currently teaching at Manurewa High School and have held this position for nine years. I teach Gagana Samoa, tourism, social sciences and added drama in 2021. My favourite bible verse is Philippians 4: 13, I love to laugh and I love every shade of red. I am passionate about Pacific dance and I am currently doing online study with the Ecumenical Institute of Bossey.
With God’s love, guidance and grace, I shall do his work to the best of my ability. This NZMWF role will bring new challenges (the good, the bad and the ugly), however, I believe and trust in my team, and I have faith because God’s got my back 100 percent.
