Kei Kirikiriria e noho ana.

I have been a part of the Rhode Street School community since 2010. Both my children began their school life here. My employment began in 2017 as a year 3-4 teacher. I have taught senior levels and am currently teaching year 5-6 students.

I enjoy encouraging students to become independent thinkers and doers by offering good choices. During these years together through routine and establishing good habits we learn responsibility, independence and engagement. 

My sense of achievement comes when students become aware of their own learning and development.
