Kia ora! I grew up in the sunny Tauranga in the North Island. I studied my Bachelor of Teaching at Waikato University and moved to the South Island after graduating. I feel super lucky to have secured a role at Lincoln Primary after a year relieving. I love the adventure the South Island brings and love how outdoorsy the people are. I have always wanted to be a teacher, embracing every student's individuality and making learning enjoyable is how I like to teach. I love seeing students become more confident at school and I am looking forward to seeing lots of this in Kereū this year! In my spare time I love spending time with my twin sister and family, hiking, fishing, the beach, water sports, camping, spending time with my friends and sewing if there’s time.
