Therapists and Specialists

About Me

I have worked as a physiotherapist for 15 years and can honestly say this is my most challenging but rewarding role to date. Helping our students with physical disabilities move from a restricted environment to a more inclusive lifestyle is my main motivation. It amazes me what our students can achieve physically when given the right equipment, motivation, and environment. Out of school, I enjoy sailing, playing football and spending time with my wife and three kids.

About Me

I am a Physiotherapist and a mom of two teenage girls. I love spending time with my family outdoors and at beaches. I also enjoy running and playing squash. I have worked as a Physiotherapist in South Africa in a variety of settings and in New Zealand with children in the community. I love working in a school environment, helping promote student's physical wellbeing and development to enable them to participate, explore and experience the school curriculum and activities.

About Me

Kia ora koutou. My name is Sudha. I am a speech-language therapist based at Wilson School. Born in Singapore, I moved to New Zealand in 2005 to pursue tertiary education and have since made NZ my home. I became a qualified speech-language therapist in 2016 and started my career at Arohanui Special School. I love working with children and young adults alongside teachers and therapists to enable and empower them to become excellent communicators. Outside of work, I am a busy mum to a toddler and a fur child. I enjoy cooking, reading and going on walks with my family. I look forward to meeting you all.

About Me

I am a South African trained Occupational Therapist with many years' experience working with children in both school and private practice settings. I structure my therapy around the belief that students learn best through activities that are meaningful, fun and motivating. My number one goal as an OT is to enable students to reach their full potential and get the most out of life. Outside of school, I enjoy walking on the beach and spending time with my lovely family and friends.

About Me

Tēnā koutou katoa! I couldn’t be happier starting my occupational therapy career at Wilson School. I look forward to working together with an incredible team of experts and young people. I relocated to Aotearoa from South Africa in 2015 after completing a Bachelors of Commence in Sport and Recreation. I always remained passionate about supporting young people to lead fulfilling and meaningful lives and graduated as an occupational therapist from AUT in 2022. Outside of school, I enjoy the outdoors, keeping active and spending time with friends.
