Kia Ora, Bula Vinaka, Sawubona, Hola and Namaste. Although born in Auckland, a significant part of my life has been spent in Colombia, South America where most of my immediate family still live. For the past ten years, I have lived by the sea in a historic Villa in Birkenhead Point with my husband and beloved pussycat 'Bogota'. I have been teaching across Auckland for ten years, where I have found children's thirst for knowledge a constant inspiration. In teaching, I try to meet this need by working towards making my classroom environment a dynamic place where students are involved and engaged in their learning. I aim to provide activities that promote higher level thinking cooperative problem solving and communication. I am delighted to now be a part of the teaching team at Takapuna Primary School and look forward to seeing the students in Room 11 develop into self motivated learners.
