You may have noticed a new face at school. I would like to introduce Kirsty Pratt. She is a new teacher in Koropepe. Her role is to work alongside Mrs Coulter and Mr Melrose to support and raise student achievement and in particular, prepare the Year 8 students for High School next year.  She aims to encourage the students to be their best selves and demonstrate the Tai Tapu School values to reach their full potential.

Kirsty has three sons. She was born in the UK but has lived in New Zealand for 26 years. Kirsty worked in Koropepe last year as a reliever so is a familiar face at Tai Tapu School.
