Before coming to Pāremata in 2004 I had been teaching at Intermediates for the first 10yrs of my teaching Career. With one child behind my belt, I joined the staff of Pāremata School as a 4th part time teacher for the year 7 and 8 team. The following year I worked with the Year 3 and 4 team and soon had another child in my Belly. I became a mum only, solely for a year, after my daughter was born but returned in 2007 to Pāremata becoming one of the CRT release for classrooms across the school. I experienced and developed much interest, in the middle and junior areas of the school.Part time work suited me well with my two young children. I then moved into full time teaching at Pāremata School shortly after my son began his first year here. I enjoyed my years teaching junior school however couldn't resist the opportunity to work again with the stunningly magic year 7 and 8's in 2021. I continue on with the Senior School looking forward to another fun and learning packed year!
