General Information
Hi, my name is Caela (pronounced Kyla).
I am part of our Learning Assistant team here at Pokeno School. I love seeing how enthusiastic all of our children are to learn everyday, and it’s an honour to be working along side them on their learning journeys. I live in Pokeno with my husband and 3 children. I love spending time with my family outdoors dirt biking, upcycling furniture and supporting my children with their sports and hobbies.
