NZEI Te Riu Roa National Executive

It is twelve months since my first executive meeting, and most of all I have learnt much and grown lots (in my thinking that is although my waist-line is certainly no slimmer!) Our union is engaged in a process of change and review which has been both challenging and exciting. I am looking forward to the next twelve months as we develop the roles of governance and how it will look. What will it mean when we come together around the table? I firmly believe that we will need to maintain participation in various levels of the institute and that this involvement does not mean stifling the leadership of the union but enhancing and enabling that to happen.
