Tena koutou, tena koutou, tena koutou
Ko tepu te maunga
Ko tote te awa
No Awherika ki te tonga toku wa kāinga engari
No Te Whanga-nui-a-Tara toku kāinga inaianei
Ko Elmarie toku hoa rangatira
Ko Shani raua ko Adrian aku tamariki
E te whanau o Pukerua Bay, e hari koa te ngakau
Ko Chris ahau
E hari koa te ngakau ki te tui i mua, I a koutou I tenei wa
No reira tena koutou, tena koutou, tena hui hui tatou katoa.
I emigrated with my wife and two children in 2002 from South Africa. We settled in Christchurch where I taught for a number of years. I moved up to Wellington and took up the principalship in 2018.
I really enjoy working with an awesome staff and community. Our vision of 'Our learning helps our community, our community helps us learn,' is something I want to see continually grow. We have fabulous tamariki who have amazing skills and are able to contribute in so many ways.
