How long have you worked at BNPS?

 This is my seventh year at BNPS. How time flies.

What inspired you to be a teacher?

Working with my own children when they were young first sparked my interest in education. 

If you weren't a teacher, what career would have you pursued?

 I would have loved to be a zoologist, working with animals. I did an ecology degree at university in London.

What is your favourite thing to do on weekends?

I’m a homebody, I love spending time with my family relaxing at home.

If you could go on a holiday anywhere in the World, where would you go? 

I have a long travel list! I’d love to go to Japan and Canada. I’m not going away these holidays sadly, but I’ll enjoy them either way. 😊

What is something that people would be surprised to know about you?

 I met David Attenborough about 25 years ago at a special lecture I was lucky enough to attend. He is such an inspirational person. 

What recently made you smile?

 3B of course-they are an amazing group of young people. 

What would you like to say to your class?

I am very proud of all of your efforts this term, keep being your awesome self.
