Kia ora koutou,
Ko Paku te maunga,
Ko Tairua te awa,
Ko Annette Howard tōku ingoa.

I am new to the role of across-school leader, and I am very excited about learning and supporting the kāhui ako with their goals and making new connections. I have taught in a number of schools across Waikato in all age levels from years 0-8. Currently, I work at Tamahere Model Country School where I have been for the past 10 years. During my career, I have had a wide range of teaching and leadership opportunities. I have a particular passion and interest in the power of collaboration, coaching and mentoring, literacy, and the collective sustainability of a positive culture of learning for all. It is a real honour to be a part of the Hillcrest Kāhui Ako, working alongside such high-quality schools and leaders.
