Kia ora.
I am delighted to have joined the Board in April 2021, prior school board experience is with Lyttelton Primary School as Parent Trustee and Chair. I firmly believe that all students should have the opportunity to learn in an inclusive supportive environment so they can achieve their best outcome. I am particularly impressed with the student wellbeing support Hagley provides. My son joined Hagley in year 9, he is currently in year 12.
My work history has centered around finances, so I am also pleased to join the finance committee.
Very much looking forward to supporting Hagley anyway I can as a Parent Trustee.
