Hello, I am Michele Pizzey and yes, my husband also works at Alpha!  My responsibilities differ from those of other staff members and are many-fold.  They include being at the front desk as Receptionist/Secretary and in supporting the teaching staff. Along with Kathryn Thorne, I am responsible for the pastoral care of the students.  I regard this as a very important role as a number of our teenage students take time to adjust to the NZ way of life and can be quite homesick.  I consider it a privilege and enjoy getting to know the various cultures our students represent.

I always find time to garden, do handwork (patchwork/embroidery), walking and spending time with family.
