Whaea Cheryl

Kia Ora

I’m Whaea Cheryl, the blonde bomb shell that whizzes around the streets in the school chariot.  I'm responsible for getting 18 children to and from school each day which most days is a lot of fun. During school hours I work with a number of tamariki in helping them reach their goals in literacy. From lunchtime onwards I'm the friendly librarian.

I have been employed at Western Heights Primary School since April 2003, which was only meant to be a temporary position but gradually it became a permanent one.  I have been very fortunate in so many ways, from learning opportunities, to working with so many talented, inspirational teachers and teacher aides, who have also become very close friends and acquaintances.
