Culture, creativity & connection is at the heart of my teaching pedagogy, ensuring all learners are valued, acknowledged and anchored in their ethnology.
As a leader, I aim to create an environment where whānau, kaiako and tamariki come together to navigate learning with a shared vision of success. Our kaiako at The Bach recognise that success varies for every individual, and are committed to nurturing these diverse pathways through responsive and inclusive teaching practice.
With whakapapa to the Cook Islands, like many, being grounded with whānau and those closest to me is what truly fills my cup and time outside of mahi. Always allowing space to reconnect and do things we love together!
Stepping into the role of Centre Leader at Future Focus Papamoa Beach has been both an honour and an exciting new chapter for me. I’m proud to be part of a centre where strong relationships, authentic connection, and the voices of our tamariki and whānau guide everything we do. Leading this incredible team means nurturing a culture where everyone feels seen, heard, and empowered to grow.
Originally from England, I made Aotearoa home ten years ago. I’m a proud mum of two and a big believer in the power of relationships – both in and
out of the centre. Outside of mahi, you’ll find me surrounded by whānau
and close friends, usually gathered around good kai, sharing laughs and making memories.
I love how much they use Te Reo Maori at Future Focus. I always wanted my son to be surrounded by Te Reo and it conforts me to know that his culture is supported and celebrate here at Future Focus.
From the first time we walked in here, we had such a sense of belonging. The Koaiako in there are amazing, communication is great and the trips to the beach are awesome and I’d recommend it.
This place is amazing. At first we were nervous about having our daughter in someone else space and not with us, but after we did the trial, she has adapted so well, she has just flourished.
