Kia ora my name is Graeme Bridge, and I am one of the Visual Art teachers. This is my first year at Waiopehu college and my seventh High School that I have taught Visual Art in. I’m not new to teaching with 31 years in the classroom, I bring a diverse range of skills and experiences. Before starting at Waiopehu I had taken a small break from teaching to pursue life as a full time Artist. Working from home, making my quite large woodcut prints. However, it gets very quiet in my studio, and I missed the noise and creative energy that the classroom brings to my day. So, I returned to teaching. Along with being an artist, I am a long-term petrol head with motorcycling a particular passion. Racing and preparing my own race machines. Competing at the National Level for several years in the Motorcycling New Zealand Road Racing Championship. Most weekends you will find me touring around the countryside on my motorcycle. I also love to collect books, films and other stuff. Enjoy playing computer games. My nerd side loves to build and tweak computers for that gamers edge. Also add in skiing, traveling, music and good coffee. I am a firm believer in having interests that feed your soul, keep you off the couch and out into the world.
