Principal’s PA
BoT Secretary

A little about me:
My husband and I are the parents to three beautiful daughters and Grandmother to two beautiful grandchildren.
When I am not at school [and I am only here Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday now] my time is all about family and friends.

A little about me and my time at Papatoetoe Intermediate School:
My time at Papatoetoe Intermediate School commenced in August 1990.
I am part of a dynamic Team – the Administration Team. In my role as Principal’s PA I support our Principal along with our School Board. Prior to supporting our Principal I was the School Receptionist for many years. I thoroughly enjoyed this role meeting and greeting families and getting to know and supporting our students.

My vision and hopes for our school:
My vision for our students at  Papatoetoe Intermediate is to be able to leave here after 2 years, well equipped for their College years and knowing they have given their 2 years at Intermediate School the best they can. Playing a sport can be a major factor in a child’s life. At Papatoetoe Intermediate all students are encouraged to take part in a sport. This teaches children team values and caring and supporting their peers.
I thoroughly enjoy my involvement with such an amazing school community and such a caring and devoted staff.
