Noo Airani Ki Te Raki ahau
I tipu ana ahau ki Mangere
Engari kei te noho ahau ki Pukekohe inaaianei
Ko Noel taku Paapaa
Ko Sally taku Maamaa
Ko Pippa taku wahine whaiaiipo
Tokorua ngaa kootiro aatahua ki a maaua
Ko Brian Martin tooku ingoa
Ko au te Tumuaki o te kura tuatahi o Te Kauwhata/Ta Kauwhata

Kia ora everyone, my name is Brian and I have been in education since 2001. I am originally from Northern Ireland and my family moved to NZ in 1988. As a family, we settled in South Auckland and I lived there for many years before moving to Pukekohe in 2013. My wife Pippa and I have two daughters Kyla and Ava. In 2014 I was employed as a Deputy Principal at TKP and I became the tumuaki in 2018!

I love working in this community as it is so diverse! Teaching is a fantastic vocation as every child is different and not one day is the same as the next.
I look forward to meeting you and your children!!
