Matua Dean’s Shout Out
Kia ora e te whānau, On behalf of the school, we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to all the parents who generously supported
Ehara taku toa i te toa takitahi, engari he toa takitini — My success is not mine alone, it is the success of many.
I’m excited to begin Term 1 as Acting Principal of Mokoia Intermediate. This role is about collective stewardship—ensuring our students thrive with the support of our fabulous teaching and support staff, our whānau, and the wider community.
At Mokoia, we are committed to engaging, inclusive, and high-quality learning for all ākonga. Together, we’ll celebrate successes, tackle challenges, and ensure every student has the opportunity to grow and excel.
Outside school, I love spending time with my three mokopuna, exploring the outdoors, keeping active, and chasing new adventures.
Here’s to a fantastic 2026, full of learning, achievement, and shared success!
