Paeariki Johnson

Principal

My name is Paeariki Johnson (nee Mataroa) and I am privileged to be the principal of Rongomai School. I have over 20 years of teaching experience and have worked in Otara and Manurewa primary schools across all levels ranging from New Entrants through to Year 6 and expanding to Intermediate and Secondary School levels.

Rongomai School is a precious taonga and one I consider to be Otara’s best hidden secret. My vision and motivation is to work alongside self-driven, like minded and innovative colleagues and whanau to build a school that fits our children and their families.
