Introducing Will

Karyn Gray —

Will will be joining the Upper School staff in 2022.

"Kia Ora koutou hoa me te whanau. My name is Will and I will be joining the Kura in the new year!

I have just completed my master’s in teaching and learning at Otago University. I grew up on an organic fruit tree farm in rural Canterbury, after moving from the bustling city of London with my whanau.

I am excited to be part of your kura, where I will be teaching in the upper school, humanities, English, PE/health and junior art. My list of hobbies include and are not limited to: writing poetry, painting, collecting plants, learning languages, and dissecting film on hopes they past the Bechdel test. I also enjoy exploring the wilderness, I am excited to explore Wellington, so if you have any suggestions let me know!

My teaching philosophy is humanism, putting the students first to grow their values, morals and identities.  That’s all from me now!

Ka Kite anō au i a koutou."
