In this special Shed Life episode, Jason sits down inside Kaihere School with Ngaire Harris, a local education legend whose story began on a dairy farm and led to a lifetime of teaching, leadership, and service.From helping her younger brother with maths to ending up with around 100 kids at her house each week, Nairi’s path into teaching was anything but ordinary. What followed was more than 30 years in education, a deep commitment to young people, and a powerful belief in character, boundaries, hard work, and community.This conversation explores what it means to raise secure kids, build strong foundations, do the right thing even when it’s hard, and create schools where every child has the chance to become their best self.A brilliant conversation about education, parenting, resilience, community, and the power of good people working hard.
