Beach Education
Instructor of the Year
Grace has made an incredible contribution to our Beach Ed
programme here in Ōtautahi. Ehara taku toa i te toa takitahi.
Engari he toa takitini. My strength is not that of a single warrior
but that of many. This so accurately describes Grace with her
natural ability to constantly put people at ease – from helping
those on their first day through to those learning to be a Head
Instructors. She is always professional, kind, thoughtful and
engaging. Her positivity radiates and helps everyone feel
included and valued. As many of her colleagues commented,
Grace you are an all-round good sort and they love being
rostered on to work with you.
