Kia Ora.
My name is Mary Silverton (many of the children know me simply as Mrs.S). I have spent my entire teaching career working in Hamilton schools, most recently at Knighton School. I have previously been a Resource Teacher Special Needs (now known as Resource Teacher Learning and Behaviour), and especially love working with Junior School children - they are naturally intrigued about the world around them and are such excited learners. While working for many years across the curriculum at this level, I have a particular strength in developing children's early literacy skills. I am also very focused on growing their self-awareness and levels of independance, helping them on their journey to become Te Totara STARS.
