Support Staff
PA/Office Manager
Over 36 years office experience
I have been the Office Manager & PA to the Principal at Tatuanui School since August 2007. I love the variety of work that my job involves, no two days are ever the same and the staff I work with are fantastic. Prior to working at Tatuanui School I worked at a Law Firm for 14 years. I was born in Lower Hutt (Wellington). Before moving to the Waikato I lived and worked in London for over 2 years. I have resided in Morrinsville for the last 32 years and enjoy working at a small country school. My two children both attended Tatuanui School. My 21 year old daughter went to Sacred Heart Girls College in Hamilton and my 19 year old son attended St John's College in Hamilton.
My interests outside of school are gardening, reading books, travel in our caravan and walking, which I enjoy. I love spending time with friends and my own family, especially time relaxing at the beach when possible.
Learning Assistant & ESOL
Teacher Aide Certificate (Massey University) First Aid Certificate
I have been part of the team at Tatuanui School since 2002. Building positive relationships with the students I work with and creating strong partnerships with their teachers and families is incredibly important to me. As I work with students across the whole school my position offers a variety of opportunities to help them achieve their full potential and successes. Working with English Second Language Students for the past 16 years is also an area I enjoy. Outside of school I enjoy gardening, reading, cooking, spending time with friends, family & grandchildren. I also enjoy travel and time relaxing at the beach.
