Senior Management Team
It is a privilege to serve the young men and women, the staff and whanau of our St Peter's College community. I truly value Catholic education and the pursuit of personal excellence that New Zealand Catholic schools are well known for. My goal as both an educator and a mother of four young adults, is to encourage our young people to use the God-given gifts that each one has, and prepare them to contribute positively to their future communities with commitment and compassion.

Despite living in a very complicated world, full of endless options and possibilities, I believe a small number of absolute truths exist. One is that only through relationships can we establish who we are, and these more than anything else reflect our values and the things we hold dear. I aspire to be a father, husband and Deputy Principal with integrity, commitment and compassion, where young people feel nurtured, and their dreams inspired. I count it as an absolute privilege to be part of the team here at St Peter’s College.

My entire adult life has been focused on high quality, valued added Catholic education... it's all about trying to create the circumstances for every individual student to achieve their absolute best and end up where they would like to be when they leave our place... that's what my husband and I would like for our little girl.
