About Us

I’m Cheryl (Mrs A) and I am the Acting Principal and also kaiako in Nga Whetū (tuakana class) alongside Mrs Mac at Spring Creek School. I also hold the position SENCO (Special Education Needs Coordinator), and PB4L Team Leader. I believe relationships are so important to build the foundations of a positive and inclusive learning environment where all tamariki feel safe to challenge themselves and grow.  I value what our amazing students and staff bring to our kura, together creating an exciting environment that engages and supports the needs of our diverse learners.

Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my family and my animals, taking walks on the beach with the dogs and listening to music.

Kia ora koutou. I am Melisa Bryant and I am excited to be teaching in Te Tipu for 2023. I have loved getting to know the children over this year and I am looking forward to building stronger relationships with the students and their whānau.

I live in Rarangi with my husband and teenage daughter. In my spare time, I love to spend time with my family, hang out at the beach and read good books.

Ko Maungakōtukutuku te maunga.
Ko Waikanae te awa.
Ko Kāpiti te motu.
Ko Ngāti Pākehā te iwi.
Ko Te Tumu Herenga Waka Marae te wharenui.
Ko Sarah Ravenwood toku ingoa.

Nō reira, tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou, tēnā tātau katoa.

Kia ora koutou, I am Sarah and I am the kaiako in Nga Whetū (tuakana class) alongside Mrs A at Spring Creek School. I absolutely love getting to know your tamariki and learning with them. I am originally from the Kāpiti Coast and moved to sunny Marlborough in 2019. Since then I have been teaching locally as well as raising my 2 year old son, Pat. I am super passionate about establishing meaningful relationships with our tamariki as they build the foundation for positive life-long learning. When I am not at school I enjoy making the most of our local environment, especially Rangitoto ki te Tonga (D’Urville Island) which is a special place for my whānau.
