A little bit about me…
Tēnā koutou e te whānau
Ko Aoraki te mauka
Ko Waitaki te awa
Ko Takitimu te waka
Ko Kati Huirapa te hapu
Ko Kai Tahu toku iwi
Ko Arowhenua te marae
Ko Beth tōku ikoa
I currently live in Nelson (Whakatū) with my two daughters.
I have a background in Early Childhood Education. I am a qualified nanny, I have a Diploma in Early Childhood Education. 7 years in the field in varied positions. I have studied 2 years of te reo Māori and 2 years of tikanga Māori.
I started making poi while I was teaching but had a dream to oneday have a place where teachers could go to get a wide range of Māori resources.
My passion is providing resources that celebrate Māori and encourage our tamariki to feel a connection to their Māori heritage, growing up positively and confidently in their cultural identity.
I hope to be able to support you on your cultural journey.
Nō reira, tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou katoa
