Ni sa bula vinaka.  Na yacaqu ko Kalesi Malanicagi.  Hi! My name is Kalesi Malanicagi.

I am Fijian and we migrated to NZ in 1998.  I taught at Aramoho Primary from 2005 to 2015, then went to Born and Raised ECE before coming to Castlecliff in 2022.

My passion has always been Language, Identity and Culture. I often feel for our tamariki who quietly suffer at school for various reasons and most of them cannot and will not share their problems - that’s where I come in hopefully.

I have four children who are young adults. I am willing to help in any way whether it be sports, cultural you name it.  I love supporting the younger generation.

Well!!  May the good Lord guide us kaiako, tamariki and whanau as we journey together this year. 

God Bless you all.
