Kaiako Introduction
Kia Ora. Welcome to the class of Stafford 2 for 2010. My name is Billie-Lee Turoa or Whaea Bille for all those students out there. I am a beginning teacher and have studied with Massey University for the past 4 years. I am a mother of 2, a daughter who is 6 years old and a son who is 2. I enjoy the great outdoors, playing sport, and having a good laugh.
I am looking forward to working with you all in an environment where we are all learning together, myself included, and having fun together. My expectations for you all are to just try your best and strive to reach all your goals, whilst displaying appropriate behaviour and attitude towards the 3R's.
A Term Overview for our class and our Class Timetable is available on this site to keep everyone engaged with what is going on in our classroom. These may change or have additions made to them on a regular basis so I would advise you to check in weekly.
My quote for you: "you have to sink a little to be able to swim great lengths"
