National Aspiring Principals Programme2014

Kia ora KoutouKia ora my name is Hoki - Moana Houkamau.

I am passionate about Leadership in the class, at school and in our community of Kaiti.

My main passion is to work with Maori and Pacifica tamariki and to provide them with, culturally

responsive learning programmes that will help them reach their full potential.

I am particularly excited about being given the opportunity to apply for the

National Aspiring Principals Programme for 2014 as I know one of the focuses of the programme is to

look at the leadership of colleagues in raising the achievement of students in school, with a particular

focus on Maori and Pacifica. I would be very interested in the outcome of those

findings.

organisation and running of this event. It was a successful day for all who participated and competed in the days racing.
