Meet Our UHub Team
UHub is a Charitable Trust. We have a Board made up of a range of Upper Hutt Community members who are all passionate about our young people and whānau, and Upper Hutt. We are committed to the best start for tamariki, so every child is a successful learner. We believe it takes a 'village' to raise young people. When young people thrive - communities thrive.
Our UHub Leader is Jo Grant, who lives in Upper Hutt and was formerly the Principal of Upper Hutt School. Jo has a team working with her which consists of Learning Support Coordinators, Social Workers, Health Practitioners and Community Providers.
