Mr Nick Leask - Deputy Principal - February 25, 2024

Kia ora, everyone! My name is Nick Leask, and I am honored to serve as an Deputy Principal overseeing the Year 7 and 8 part of our kura and leading student achievement initiatives.

My journey in education began from my passion for sports of all kinds. As a Physical Education teacher, I have had the privilege of instilling this passion in my students while nurturing their physical and mental well-being. I firmly believe that participation in sports not only promotes a healthy lifestyle but also teaches invaluable life skills such as teamwork, resilience, and determination.

Outside of the classroom, you can often find me spending quality time with my family, which includes my energetic 4-year-old son. Our weekends are filled with adventures, and we love exploring different parks and outdoor spaces together.

In essence, I became a teacher because I am passionate about making a positive difference in the lives of young people. I am excited about the opportunity to work collaboratively with our school community to create an inclusive and supportive learning environment where every student can thrive.

I look forward to getting to know each of you better and working together to unlock the incredible potential within every student.
