I’m Kathy Hankins and I teach Year 3 in Rūma Waru (8).

I love supporting our tamariki in their learning, watching them grow, and having fun together along the way!

I am married to Jimmy and we have three awesome boys - Max, Will and Jack - and a beautiful old dog Cooper who we keep fit with lots of bush walks! We live in Upper Hutt and have loved bringing up our family in this incredible area and community. I also have a very special connection to Taupo, where my family lived for many years.
