Our counsellors are Mr. Singh, Mrs. McKenzie and Mr. Scott.

Mr. Singh

si@riccarton.school.nz

I became a counsellor through working with students at risk. The most rewarding part of being a counsellor is knowing that you had a part in affecting the life of another human being. Giving hope when people feel hopeless. Inspiring others to be all that they are capable of being. I value friendship, honesty, genuineness and acts of kindness. Our counselling service is confidential. No problem is too big or too small. We will help you learn strategies to cope, support you and advocate for you. If you are ready to talk we are ready to listen. We are here for you.  

Mrs. McKenzie

One of the things I like about being a counsellor is the privilege of hearing people's stories, my office is a safe place for students to talk in confidence and feel heard without judgment. In my spare time I like to go walking and I play table tennis to stay active. At home I live with my husband, 2 cats and a dog.   

Mr. Scott

mck@riccarton.school.nz

I became a counsellor after working with at-risk youth and people with disabilities for many years. Come and see me if you need someone to talk to. No problem is too big or too small, together we can figure it out and create a new solution or perspective. Our service is confidential. I love sailing, music and movies, cricket, karate and KFC. I live with my wife, we have two boys and a cat called Simba.
