Kia ora koutou, ko Alli tōku ingoa. While I have only been at Pareawa Banks Avenue since Term 4, 2024, I have been a kaiako for nearly 30 years. I feel privileged to have taught at just about every year level during that time, from New Entrants right up to Year 12 (teaching English). I consider myself blessed to be part of this fabulous school community and look forward to supporting tamariki | children, whānau | families, kaimahi | staff, and the wider school community to make our kura | school, the best school it can be. I live in Prebbleton with my husband, Chris. We have three adult children (Caleb, Meg and Jesse), a cat (Jasper), and a cavoodle (Rupert) who loves going for walks and chasing birds. I enjoy reading, watching movies, and cafe dates with friends.
