Kia Ora Tātou

Ko Rangitoto te maunga

Ko waitematā te awa

No Ahuriri ahau

Ko Norris tōku whānau

Ko Kim tōku ingoa

I am very excited to take the next step and be the acting principal for the rest of 2023.  Bex is a huge inspiration as to what makes a great leader and I have learned a lot from her since I began at Waipukurau School in April 2021.  

A little bit about me if you did not know already; I have 2 girls who are 8 and nearly 5.  We live in Havelock North to be close to family and our friends.  My husband was in the Navy for 17 years and that was a big part of our lives together, so you may have noticed from my pepeha that there is a part of me always linked to Tāmaki Makaurau.  

We have an amazing team at Waipukurau School and I love being part of this awesome community!  We have been through a lot in the last 2 years together and I really value the relationships that I have built so far with the students and their whānau.  

Relationships are at the center of every good partnership and we are here to support you and your child/ren the best we can so please reach out to us if you do have any questions or if you need support as we will always try and help the best we can!
