I can still hear her voice to this day has we would lead into Scripture, Maori classes come in quietly and sit and do your lessons she was a lovely lady and for me in those days i tested all the teachers and gave them a hard time i left Turakina at the end of 90 and was very sadden to know that Mrs Koia had passed on so she is one lady that was very special always there when i needed her and that was alot....she was always trying to keep me out of trouble and i think she got through to me by my 6th Form so i just thought i would write that for her. Kia Ora Mrs Koia and to your whanau!!
