General Information

Kia ora my name is Ariane Josephs
Previous to working here I have worked for 4 years as a teacher at an Early Childhood Centre here in Hamilton. My husband and myself are old students of the school and now have the privilege of being able to send our 2 children to the school and hope they are able to learn and grow the same way I was able to.
Outside of school I enjoy watching and playing sports, Kapahaka, harakeke and korowai weaving and also enjoy dancing.
I hope by taking this next step I can learn more about how to develop and progress our tamariki but to also apply a few of the teachings and principles I have learnt on my journey.
