We are thrilled to welcome our new Chief Executive, Shelley Blakey. Shelley is a local, highly respected leader who has spent the last nine years devoted to building an engaged team and an inclusive and supportive culture as Principal at Arataki Primary School.

Shelley is excited to be moving into a completely different sector and the learning and challenge that this encompasses. The essence of what Momenta does, working with people to pursue their dreams and goals, aligns with her values and commitment to serve the community in which she lives. Shelley has a heartfelt connection to Tauranga, being born here and lived here all her life. She also feels extremely fortunate that her two daughters still live here with her four beautiful grandchildren, which is who she loves to spend as much time as she can with. Welcome to the Momenta whānau Shelley!

Nahau te rourou, naku te rourou ka ora ai te manuhiri. With your basket of knowledge, and my basket of knowledge, the people will prosper.
