Oak (Year 6)

A bit about me: I started out as a TA, fulfilling this role for 10 years, supporting children across the Primary spectrum. During this time, I completed my BA HONS degree in Childhood Studies, gaining a 2:1.  This fuelled my enthusiasm for teaching and I embarked on my teaching journey to gain Qualified Teacher Status, which I successfully achieved.

I have very sporty bones and enjoy most sports, Athletics, being my favourite. I'm a tad competitive, ok, I'm very competitive! In my youth, I represented Kent in Athletics, and was once the South East England Champion in Long jump. I still thoroughly enjoy spectating sports, especially the Olympics. I also take pride in helping /coaching and taking the MYG teams to the different sports to represent our school. 

I am a mum to 3 wonderful boys!

Favourite food:  Well... this is a tough question! I am a bit of a fussy eater, so simple foods such as, bangers and mash, or a chicken roast (with all the trimmings, of course!), smothered in thick gravy, is a winner! And... chocolate, anything chocolate based, is my biggest vice, I love chocolate! 

Hobbies: I have been to many wonderful places in the world, Australia, has to be the most memorable. I love spending time with my children, playing games, socialising with friends and finding new places to explore and walk my dogs. One of my favourite pastimes is chilling on the sofa and getting engrossed in a good drama series, Peaky Blinders, has to be up there at the top!
