Nicola Love - Teacher Aide (Pōhutukawa)

Tēnā koutou,

Ko Ingarani ōku tīpuna.
Ko Larry Hall tōku matua.
Ko Linda Hall tōku whaea.
Ko Kris Love taku tāne.
Ko Khan rātou ko Trē, ko Jayden, ko Ryker āku tamariki.
Nō Whanganui-a-Tara ahau.
Ko Nicola Love tōku ingoa.

After spending 20 years in the travel industry, COVID inspired me to take a new direction. I had always been drawn to working alongside tamariki, supporting them to learn, grow and thrive. In 2023, I began my journey as a Teacher Aide at Amesbury School, and it has been one of the most rewarding decisions I’ve made.

I love building positive relationships with tamariki, celebrating their successes, and supporting them through challenges so they can feel confident, capable, and included. Every day brings something new, and I feel privileged to be part of such a caring and supportive kura.

My husband, Kris, and I have four sons, all of whom have attended Amesbury School. Our eldest has recently graduated from university, our second eldest is now part of the Amesbury whānau as a Teacher Aide and Kelly Club Coordinator, our third son heads off to college next year, and our youngest is still proudly attending Amesbury. Being both a staff member and a parent gives me a unique perspective and a strong connection to our school community.

Outside of kura, my greatest passion is my whānau. You’ll often find me spending time on the sidelines of a rugby field or basketball court, cheering on one of my boys, or enjoying quality time together as a family making memories.

I look forward to continuing to work alongside our amazing tamariki, whānau, and staff.

Nō reira, tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou, tēnā tātou katoa.
