Teacher Feature
Miss Bailey- 2B
When was the last time you were nervous?
It was actually last week at the Grade 4 camp. The kids encouraged me to go on the possum glider (a giant swing). When I was getting harnessed up, I was so nervous. As soon as my feet left the ground, all my nerves left and I had the best time!
Fill in the blank: If you really knew me, you'd know I always pre-google the menu and order chips for the table when going out to eat.
What superpower would you like to have?
I would love to be able to teleport. I hate sitting in traffic so being able to teleport everywhere would be amazing! I also love to travel, but the airfares are so expensive. Imagine being able to just teleport to Italy and get a pizza for dinner… that would be living the dream!
What did you do growing up that got you into trouble?
As a kid, I used to hate green vegetables. I would always try and get creative about how I could get rid of them off my plate, so I wouldn’t have to eat them. Whether it be feeding them to the dog under the table, scooping them onto someone else plate when no one was looking or even putting them in my pocket and flushing them down the toilet later.
When are you at your happiest?
I am at my happiest when I am spending time with my family and friends. I especially love spending time with my nephews. I am also at my happiest when I am at the gym getting in a great workout with friends or being outdoors challenging myself to do something new and crazy.

What is something you learned in the last week?
As a teacher I find great joy in learning from others, in particular my students. Last week, I learnt that Leeches have two mouths, and a new dance move called the Griddy.
What would a "perfect" day look like for you?
My perfect day would begin by heading to the gym for an early work out (win the morning, win the day) followed by a walk to the café with my fiancé Steph and our pup Roo. After this, you could find me in the garden planting edibles or harvesting fresh produce. My perfect day would end around a fire with some close friends and family.
What super power would you like to have?
Over the years, I have changed my answer to this question. Initially, I would have answered with powers such as invisibility, endless riches, or the ability to fly. Currently, I would love the capacity to talk to animals as I truly think it would open a whole new world of possibilities.
What do you miss most about being a kid?
What I miss the most about being a kid is the true sense of freedom. As adults, we have many commitments and responsibilities. However, as a kid you can live life in a very spontaneous manner.
When are you the happiest?
I am the happiest when I am outside and doing something of a physical nature. That could be playing sport, gardening, walking the dog or simply having a coffee.
