I love being the person who gets to witness those lightbulb moments when a child grasps a new concept or masters a skill. As a room leader, I take pride in creating a warm, inclusive environment where kids feel safe to explore and grow. Working closely with families adds another layer of joy, knowing we\u2019re all in this journey together, shaping bright futures.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-58bea01\" data-id=\"58bea01\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f808a5c elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"f808a5c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"807\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/web8.co.nz\/websites\/littlestlearners\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/GRACE-scaled-e1785807739784-807x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-4403\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/web8.co.nz\/websites\/littlestlearners\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/GRACE-scaled-e1785807739784-807x1024.jpg 807w, https:\/\/web8.co.nz\/websites\/littlestlearners\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/GRACE-scaled-e1785807739784-236x300.jpg 236w, https:\/\/web8.co.nz\/websites\/littlestlearners\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/GRACE-scaled-e1785807739784-768x974.jpg 768w, https:\/\/web8.co.nz\/websites\/littlestlearners\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/GRACE-scaled-e1785807739784.jpg 1195w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 807px) 100vw, 807px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-320513b elementor-section-content-middle elementor-reverse-mobile elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"320513b\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-8b367a8\" data-id=\"8b367a8\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-367744d elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"367744d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Magdalene\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d6f3726 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d6f3726\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Storytellers Team Leader<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-73303a9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"73303a9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hi, I&#8217;m Magdalene!<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I am originally from South Africa and have been living in New Zealand since 2023.
