Kia Ora! My name is Hannah Swansbury and this will be my first year of teaching at Te Kauwhata primary, where I am teaching Year 4's and 5's, having recently completed my Bachelors in Teaching at The University of Waikato.
I am passionate about hauora (wellbeing) and how our four dimensions of health impact our daily lives in and outside of the classroom.
Outside of school I enjoy horse riding, swimming, walking/hiking, reading, and travelling.
I am thrilled to be here teaching the awesome tamariki at Te Kauwhata primary and look forward to getting to know you all!
