The Board of Trustees

Here are the current members of the school's Board of Trustees. Please don't hesitate to catch us in playground or contact any of us directly if there's anything you'd like to talk about, or if you have any questions for board members. You can find contact details in your school directory, or Carolyn or Katie in the school office will be happy to put you in touch.

   

Robyn McInnes.

My children at CDPS are Jacob (Year 4) and Alice (Year 1). I also have Kate who finished Year 6 in 2015. Our family lives in Ngaio, but we choose to send our children to school at Crofton Downs. We love the school, the people that make up the community, and the way our children are treated with care and sensitivity as individuals. I've been chairing the Board of Trustees since January 2016. I am at school every day for drop-off and pick-up and always happy to chat -- come over and say hello.

Having lived in the neighbourhood for 20 years, I felt being involved and part of the community is an important role to support. What better way to be able to give to the school than with my time. I have worked in the IT and banking industry before changing careers and owning a business for 9 years along the way. I have two daughters Zoe and Ally whom we are busy raising and following them on their journeys. My wife is a teacher, so education is important in our household.

My children Tom (year 4) and Imogen (year 1) are loving their time at Crofton Downs - it's a great school with a fantastic spirit, and it's a privilege to make a contribution to the school as a member of its board of trustees. I'm around on Tuesdays and Fridays for school pick-ups and I'm always happy to chat with fellow parents.

Crofton Downs is fortunate to have such a special school as a part of the community, and I’m pleased to be able to support the school to continue to be a great place to grow wonderful children.

My children are Thomas in the middle pod, and Daniel in the junior pod.

 

Emma Kelly

I am Mum to Phoebe (Year 4) and Liam (Year 2) and since moving to Crofton Downs Primary School we have found the quality of education, organization and leadership of the school to be amazing. I’m very pleased to be able to contribute to this with my professional skills as a parent representative on the Board. I’m always keen to hear from the community about their experiences of our fantastic school and am around at school pick-up most days for a chat.
