Matt Langworthy

Presiding Member (Chair)

Hi, I’m Matt, Dad to Henry (Wellington College) and Gus (Upper Bridge). We live in the neighbourhood, and love this part of town. If you see us walking, running or biking around, say hi. During the day I'm a programme manager specialising in improving the performance of government functions. I'm also a human rights consultant working on issues faced by our rainbow communities. I have an MBA and have held a range of senior operational roles in dispute resolution and public health. I'm passionate about education and creating communities where everyone can thrive. I’ve previously held the finance and property roles on the Board, and I actively support the School's commitment to learning te reo and tikanga Māori and upholding Te Tiriti o Waitangi. It’s a pleasure to help out in this wonderful school community.

Airihi Mahuika

Policy and Secretary

I’m Airihi Mahuika and, with Peter Alsop, we have 4 children at school – Max , Isabella , Zeb  and Lexi . We’re very grateful for the supportive learning environment at Roseneath and the supportive wider school community. I was co-opted to the board last year and have enjoyed working in this way to support the school and work collaboratively with other board members. I’m passionate about ensuring a safe, stimulating and inclusive environment for all kids, and providing a great workplace for our wonderful staff. I’ve held senior legal and leadership roles across both the private and public sector, and bring these skills to the board, alongside my strong focus on relationships, collaboration and integrity. I am also very supportive of the school’s commitment to kaupapa Māori and whakapapa to Ngāti Porou.

Sarah Roan

Parent Representative

Kia ora koutou, Ko Sarah Roan tōku ingoa. I’ve been living in Wellington for nine years with my husband, Mike Roan. Prior to moving to Aotearoa I was living in the US where I grew up in the suburbs outside Boston, MA. Our youngest daughter, Addie Roan is in Aft class and our older daughter, Ashlee Roan attended Roseneath School from years 5 – 8. We also have a 20 year old, Ethan, at home…safe to say, there’s rarely a dull moment in the Roan household! I consider myself to be truly blessed having Ash & Eth in my life – they are my ‘bonus kids’ (aka: stepkids). Professionally, I have worked in People & Leadership (HR) teams in both the private and public sector in both the US and here in NZ. I specialise in the areas of leadership development, team building, culture, engagement and coaching. It’s an honor to be on the Roseneath School Board and give back to the school community that has given our whānau so much.
