Tēnā Koutou katoa, Ko Morgan Jurisich Tōku ingoa. I am humbled and honoured to be one of the Deputy Principals at our incredible kura. I began my career here at Ponsonby Primary School as a beginning teacher which helped to shape me into the educator I am today. I spent a couple of years teaching in the far south of Te Waipounamu before making my way back to Te Rimu Tahi where I have been ever since, because once you are are a part of the Ponsonby Whānau, you are always a part of the whānau. I am passionate about creating an environment for our ākonga where they find joy in coming to school each day. A place where their wellbeing is nurtured, their minds are encouraged to explore endless creative opportunities and find innovative solutions to problems that affect their lives. Most importantly, I want to help our tamariki to flourish by supporting them to reach their fullest potential. I love a good kōrero so please pop in and say hi or drop me an email anytime.
