51

Welcome to 51 Zane!

"Kia Ora team,

My name is Zane Smith, I am the new Health and Physical Education teacher and head of the ‘CHAMPION’ Hughes for 2023. I have come to 51 from St John’s Catholic College in the city and although I enjoyed my time there, I am very blessed and excited to be a part of this community.

I have a wife and two beautiful little girls who are my world and keep me on my toes when I am not at school. I am originally from West Auckland, New Zealand but have spent most of my teaching life in the desert of Alice Springs and worked at Yirara College for many years before moving up to Darwin.

I am looking forward to getting to know and start to build those positive relationships with students and their families, with the hope of being a positive role model, fostering personal growth and bringing the best out of our students here at 51 College.”
