Robert Clarke

Academic Manager Pōhutukawa

BEd, Dip Tching

Kia ora,

I started my teaching career at Te KKM Maori o Arowhenua in Invercargill. I then spent 20 years as a Principal in Temuka, South Canterbury, Porangahau, Central Hawkes Bay, Whau Valley in Whangarei, Avondale Primary here in Auckland before finishing in Hamilton.

I've spent the last 3 years as a Senior Education Advisor at the Ministry of Education, Tamaki Herenga tangata, North West.

I have four bilingual adult children and one still at high school, with two cheeky mokopuna entering the schooling ranks soon.

I am life long Warriors and Chiefs supporter and welcome parents and caregivers to drop by here to our Pohutukawa Campus.
