Since joining the Cardinal McKeefry School in 2022, I am proud to be leading CMck (a school with a big heart) and its teaching staff. It is a great opportunity and privilege to serve the community, the parents, and the students.

At Cardinal McKeefry School, we focus on bringing numeracy and literacy rigor based on innovative and well research learning tools and assessments. We follow a holistic educational approach where we aim to develop students who are preparing for future success and are willing to take ownership of their learning. Everyone matters in our family-friendly environment; and we embrace the diversity in our school community. We support our students to be respectful, responsible, and resilient.

We encourage whanau to be a part of the school life and a partner in the learning journey of their child. This adds value to building a positive relationship between home and school and a lasting connection with their teachers. Community matters to us at Cardinal McKeefry school.

We are very proud of our special character and our values. Our connection to the community is strong. Our expectations of our students and community are high. We have a rich and fertile base for success and strong academic performance.
