Deborah Gosnell
Acting Assistant Principal Assessment/Inquiry and Mentoring/Coaching
It is with a sense of excitement that I join the highly skilled team of educators at Manurewa West Primary School. I am passionate about learning and empowering students to be the best version of themselves. I look forward to partnering with you in supporting your child on their learning journey. At home I enjoy relaxing with friends and spending time with my husband and our two children as well as our two SPCA cats Lunar and Eclipse.
