What makes Aubrey Mason Kindergarten a special place, is its enriching environment that embraces the diverse cultures within the community, making it warmly inclusive. Kaiako delight in providing equitable opportunities for all tamariki. Whanaungatanga and manaakitanga are important values that are at the core of our everyday mahi. 

My favourite activity is listening to music and having a good laugh with family and friends.

Aubrey Mason Kindergarten is a special place to me as I came here as a child, my children both attended this kindergarten and now I am lucky enough to be a teacher here too. Kindergarten has an awesome community vibe and I love that we are able to provide high quality early childhood education to the local community. 

I love baking for friends and family, especially birthday cakes and cupcakes.

Being te kaiako at Aubrey Mason Kindergarten, I am passionate about supporting tamariki to grow into competent and confident learners. .

Some of my interests include theatre, music, travel and spending time with my grandies.
