I would like to announce that I am finishing full time teaching at Grey Lynn School at the end of this year.

I have had a wonderful experience teaching many of the beautiful children in our community.

Over the past twelve years I have had many different roles and responsibilities; I have been a classroom teacher in the junior and middle school, and a reading recovery teacher. I have taken on leadership roles as a team leader for the Puriri team, Positive Behaviour For Learning team (now the Grey Lynn Way - PRIDE values), and lead the ‘Dig This’ gardening group of keen gardeners. I was also a member of the Board of Trustees for six years.

I have thoroughly enjoyed all of my roles and would like to thank you all for your friendship and support during my time here at Grey Lynn.

He mihi aroha, Debra (Mrs Lawson)
