Welcome to T3 2010...I am very excited to be part of this amazing school and I look forward to an awesome year of fun and learning in Te Kanawa team!  There are so many opportunities at R.I and I know that we are all going to be involved in lots of great endeavours in sports, cultural, citizenship and academic areas..

This year I will be looking after the hockey teams and also playing for my club team (Tairawhiti) with Whaea Mel (yep we still play !!).
I have one daughter, Waiata, she is in 7th form at Rotorua Girls' High School.  My extended family consists of 6 nieces, 2 nephews and 1 grand niece and 1 grand nephew...This summer holiday I was able to catch up with family and friends as well as go to the beach (Maketu, Newdicks, Whitianga etc) and spend time outdoors (walking and jogging). 

Well, I am really looking forward to getting to know the students in T3 and being part of your growth and learning this year.  Let's keep our BLOG alive so we can share our progress and ideas...

No reira- Kia Kaha Kia Maia !
