My name is Catherine Robinson, and I am married to Alex Quinn. Between us we have 12 grandchildren (soon to be 13) so I feel that I am still in touch with kids, their “wants”, their “needs “, and challenges. I am also strong on the belief that it is up to both family and community to help instill good values in our children and to encourage good work ethics.
I have been on committees in Plunket, the mobile kindergarten (where I also worked as a relief teacher), school PTA, Board chair at Turua and Kaihere primary schools, Kaihere Hall and Domain, and close to 20 years on the Life Education Trust. My enthusiasm to see children get the best opportunity that they can has not waned.
I am enjoying being part of a team where we have strong leadership, passionate staff, and a real desire to lift the bar and deliver strong results.
