About Me

Kasey Poole (B.A., Grad.Dip.Tch.Ln)

I graduated from the University of Canterbury in 2008, and was lucky to begin my teaching career at Matangi School in January 2009.

I have had experience in teaching year 2,3 and 4 since starting at Matangi, and have thoroughly enjoyed all of these age groups.

As a recently trained teacher I have up to date knowledge on curriculum and other teaching practice. I have attended a number of different courses since starting at Matangi and these have helped me to increase my professional knowledge further.
