SPORTS COORDINATOR
Kia ora and Talofa everyone, I'm Ishmael Tilialo the Sports Coordinator for Papakura High. My office is located next door to the Gym with the blue/green door so if you're interested in playing sports then come by and let's have a chat.
During lunch breaks you can also come by my office and take a ball to play with. (you'll need to leave a bag or phone that will be given back when you return the ball).
In my role, I'm in charge of all the different sports teams at school; everything from Rugby, Netball and Volleyball to Badminton, Football and Ki O Rahi to name a few. If you or your parents have any questions or concerns, send me an email at tli@papakurahigh.school.nz
I coach Rugby, Athletic field events, and help out by managing many other teams.
