Riana joined the team at the beginning of 2023. This is her first job in an early childhood centre. She is now planning to enrol in an education degree programme.
Riana loves teaching KEL tamariki and learning more about how tamariki develop. She is enjoying watching them each grow as a person and being a part of their learning journey. Since she has been at KEL she has also enjoyed building relationships with all the tamariki and their whānau.
In her spare time Riana enjoys socialising with friends and family and spending time outdoors.
