Jane Kay - Director of Guidance
Hi, my name is Jane Kay and I am the Director of Guidance here at Papamoa College.
I grew up in Te Puke, trained to be a teacher in Hamilton and completed my Masters in Counselling and Post Graduate Diploma in Professional Supervision at Auckland University. I am married to Andy and we have three adult children and two granddaughters.
My main role is to support the mental health and emotional wellbeing of our students so that they can achieve their best possible educational and social outcomes. This involves providing counselling support and pastoral care for students, families and staff.
My team includes Jim Browne (Counsellor) Hayley Crenfeldt (Counsellor), Rebekah Thomas (Counsellor) and a broad range of outside agencies that we work alongside to provide this support for our students and families.
