Aden believes teaching and learning is reciprocal, by responding to the aspirations of the school, iwi, hapū and whānau (i.e. whanaungatanga, manaakitanga, kaitiakitanga, kotahitanga and wairuatanga), all of our tamariki/learners can thrive. Our learners are our treasure/taonga.
Aden is proficient in Te Reo Māori and versed in tikanga Māori. Between 2016 to 2017 he successfully completed two Te Reo Māori programmes, one at Te Wānanga o Takiura and another at Te Wānanga o Aotearoa.
