School vision:
Tamaki College is a vibrant engaged learning community, accepting challenges in the wairua of excellence, integrity, resilience and respect.
Together we weave our talents, strengths and values to harness opportunities with commitment and innovation.
Your values interact and impact your style.
Step up and speak up
Lead with the head - logic driven - you pioneer
Lead with the heart - emotion driven - you inspire
Stand back and observe
Lead with the head - logic driven - you excel
Lead with the heart - emotion driven - you empathize
Which one am I? I think that I fall into the second category - I stand back and observe. I like to study the situation, student, learning need - whatever it is - my style is to research first and then pursue what I need to. 'Lead with the heart' - I am driven by what I feel and I am inspired by.
In 2019 I will make a difference by being more focused on the needs of my students. Their learning needs and achievement will always be at the forefront. I want to ensure that their physical and mental well-being is nurtured just as much as their academic goals. What I have learnt from 2018 is that accolades, success - all of that - are blessings that we can enjoy and celebrate. However, the state of our mind - mental wellness - is an important part of our success. It needs to be nurtured, inspired, challenged, stretched and loved. I want this to be a part of my leadership, supporting the learning needs of the students and giving them a space to be encouraged and inspired.
