Year 2: Term 1 and 2 - Towns and Cities





I am extremely lucky to have been a part of the Holy Cross school family for the past 30 years. I have taught in Years 2 through to Year 5 and have carried out intervention work in Year 6. I love being a teacher, encouraging children to explore, learn and have fun.

I grew up in Leicester and moved to Swindon when I was 13 years of age. I trained for 4 years at Trinity and All Saints College in Leeds, affiliated to Leeds university. I have a Batchelor's degree in Geography with Qualified Teacher Status.

I am married and have one son who is currently on a 5-year Degree apprenticeship course in aeronautical engineering.

I love teaching, especially teaching about the world in which we live, both through geography and science. Looking at and exploring the world around us and seeing how amazing it all is, makes teaching so much fun! Teaching for me is extremely rewarding and it is a real privilege to watch the wonderful children of Holy Cross grow and learn; progressing both academically and non-academically. It is also an honour to work with families, as their children travel along their learning journey.

I have been working within Holy Cross for a wonderful few years. I have had over 10 years experience in Early Years Education and supporting families in the Swindon community. My passion is to remain a motivational and inspiring teacher which enables children to have a best possible start in their education, here at Holy Cross.

In my spare time I love to dance, I am part of an adult’s ballet and tap school and we look forward to performing on stage every two years. I have two beautiful daughters, and we love exploring new places, especially if there is a beach or castle involved!
