Rototuna High Schools


KORERO FROM MIRANDA

Kia Ora Rototuna whānau,

It is my pleasure to introduce myself to you. My name is Miranda Makin and I feel very privileged to have been given the opportunity to lead this amazing senior school. I have over 25 years experience in a range of secondary schools in a range of leadership roles. Most recently I have been working with the Centre for Educational Leadership at the University of Auckland. I am passionate about the power of education and I am driven by the desire to ensure our young people are enabled to participate in society with dignity, purpose and options.

Monday was a wonderful first day and introduction to the school. Thank you to all the staff, students, parents and community representatives who were there to welcome me so warmly. My family and colleagues were really impressed by the way the students conducted themselves during the pōwhiri, and on their first day back at school!

On behalf of both schools, I would also like to take this opportunity to welcome back everyone to Term 4. I hope you have all had a safe and refreshing break. From the short time I have been here I get the sense that this term will be a hive of activity as we all work to finish this year well. Additionally, I look forward to the possibility of meeting you and your families in person as the term progresses.

Ngā mihi nui,

Miranda
