Principal’s PA
BoT Secretary

A little about me and my time at Papatoetoe Intermediate School:
My time at Papatoetoe Intermediate School commenced in August 1990.  At this time my family lived in Papatoetoe and 2 of our 3 daughters were attending the school.  I was part of the Papatoetoe Intermediate School PTA during the time our daughters attended the school. We moved out of the area in 2002, and  I continued my employment at the school.  

I am part of a dynamic Team – the Administration Team and in my role as Principal’s PA I support our Principal along with our Board of Trustees. 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.
