Kia Ora,

Kia Ora,
My name is Minette Maritz, I was born and raised in South Africa but immigrated to New Zealand in 2017.
Previous to teaching at Pokeno School I was teaching in ECE. I am so excited to be part of the teaching staff of Kiwi whanau.
In my free time I enjoy going on hikes, walking my dog Zulu, baking, camping and spending quality time with family and friends especially when there is rugby on.
I look forward to getting to know you all!

Kia Ora, everyone! Kamusta?
I'm Maria Rushell Zinampan, but you can just call me Shelly. I've had an amazing journey teaching in primary schools back in the Philippines and as an ECE teacher in Singapore. My family and I made the big move to New Zealand in July 2022, and I absolutely loved my time as a Kaiako at Urban Explorers Pokeno for the past two years. This is my first experience teaching in a primary school here, and I feel so blessed to be at Pokeno School. Being new, I'm really looking forward to making new friends and jumping into all the exciting experiences that lie ahead!
