Ngā mihi nui ki ngā kaiako,
A huge thank you to all the teachers who have kept our tamariki and rangatahi safe during these trying times. You have adapted, taught online, adhered to Covid guidelines, shown great patience, manaaki and aroha while also managing your own whānau and well-being.

When we had COVID, I was worried about how to look after everyone else while I was sick. It was such a blessing to have my GP ringing me at home to see how everyone was. She went above and beyond to get us through. Ngā mihi Dr Angela Lawson.

Thank you for creating the opportunity to give back to our communities and working alongside manawahine who have so much more to give in this world. I am truly loving the flourishing relationship and the grounding i get from my wonderful mentee who inspires me to shine brighter each week!
