Welcome to Splat!

Here at Splat! we believe every child needs a space to discover their spark. We offer that through drama and public speaking. Staying true to our principle that 'laughter leads the learning' our highly trained teachers bring their high octane, dynamically wonderful weirdness to provide the most fun imaginable! Our goal is to develop children’s self-confidence by allowing them the space to try new things and feel great while doing so.

Aka Professor Manonagul

Director and Auckland Tutor

After spending three years as a self-confidence coach, Joshuwawa brings his creativity, energy and relentless positivity to the Splat! Squad. He has honed his skills like a silliness samurai to co-create the various programs we offer. After graduating with a bachelor of communications, Joshuwawa has found his spark in the arts through film and drama. Sport has been his biggest love and was the prominent activity growing up that helped him find his self-confidence. 

Manon has more than 10 years of teaching experience in the performing arts and children’s education sectors. After graduating with a Bachelor of Dance Studies, Manon went on to teach drama-based self-confidence classes to children across Tāmaki Makaurau. She has since worked across a range of education and leadership roles, including as an Early Intervention Education Assistant supporting preschool-aged children, Operations Manager at Future Leaders Academy, and Funding Manager at The Auckland Performing Arts Centre.

Alongside teaching Splat!’s Auckland programmes, Manon currently works as a School Holiday Programme Manager and continues to bring her experience in children’s education, performing arts and programme management into her work with Splat!

Dedicated to fostering a fun and inclusive learning environment, Manon brings passion, dedication, and a whole lot of silliness to every class.
