Principal

Kia ora koutou

It is my honor to be the current Principal of Raphael House.

In my career I have been a Principal or senior leader in seven previous schools which include primary, secondary and area schools. Prior to leadership I also taught in three other schools.

Although the rest of my teaching has been in State schools I have developed  areal affinity with the special character of a Steiner school.

I particularly align with the approach of a holistic centered broad approach to curriculum.

I love both teaching and leadership and the opportunity to contribute to the growth of young people and our staff.

Outside of school I spend a lot of time with my two-year-old granddaughter, and her parents, and am looking forward to the arrival of a new grandchild this year.
