My name is Tom Syben, my wife and I moved to Wanaka in 2016 after spending some
time working overseas. We have two boys at Wanaka Primary. One in Year 6 and
another in Year 4. We also have a four-year-old who attends a local pre-school and will
be starting at Wanaka Primary in early 2025.
We own and operate tourism businesses here in Wanaka and on the West Coast. I also
enjoy giving back to the community in my role as a Station Officer for the Wanaka
Volunteer Fire Brigade as well as serving the community as a Justice of the Peace.
I’m excited to be a part of the Board of Trustees and am looking forward to working with
the rest of the board and the school staff to ensure our children have the best possible
start in their learning journey.
