I'm a long-time resident of Mount Wellington, having grown up in the area and now raising my daughter here. I come from a strong Niuean family and am deeply rooted in this community. I work as a teacher at Stanhope Road School and lead the cross-schools network, supporting collaboration and shared opportunities for students across our local schools. My family has a proud connection to the Mount Wellington Rugby Club, and I'm a passionate advocate for youth access to sport. I believe sport plays a vital role in building confidence, resilience, and belonging in young people. I'm committed to ensuring the long-term viability of the Mount Wellington Licensing Trust (MWLT), so it can continue delivering benefits to local families. I want to see the Trust grow its ability to reinvest in our community and create a thriving, inclusive Mount Wellington for generations to come. Vote Petunia Makaua and C&R
