Ko wai au:
I am a full time mother of 6 tamariki. We love going out on family holidays enjoying hunting, fishing and gathering kai.
Relaxing is not my thing and I am forever kept on my toes with my children until it’s time to go to sleep.

My current role at the kura is ensuring all tamariki have a daily hearty and healthy lunch. I also get to be around my tamariki who attend this kura, so it’s a happy place for me.
