Tēnā koutou, My name is Shelley Fuller and this year I am teaching Year 6-8 children in Room 5. I spent my childhood growing up in Stratford and attended both Stratford Primary and Stratford High School, with both of my parents also teaching in the region. This year will be my 20th year teaching, in which I did my first two years in Stratford. I left the province in 2004 to teach in the Hawkes Bay and the Manawatu and returned home, with my children, in 2019 to teach at Toko.
My partner and I have 4 children between us aged 8-15, my daughter and son love attending Toko School in Room 4 & 6. I have a passion for teaching a balanced programme that has a focus on hands on learning and applying new skills while developing independent, responsible learners. This year I am also looking forward to working as a within schools teacher for the Kahui Ako with a focus on transitions to secondary school. I am looking forward to an exciting and busy 2021.
