Meet our Year 3 teachers

Miss Bo

(3A Teacher and Team Leader)

Hi there, my name is Bo. My favourite subject to teach is Inquiry, but the best part about this job is having a laugh with the amazing students in my class. When I'm not working, I spend my time coaching and playing AFL for my local team in West Footscray, dancing to live music, travelling, spending time with my family and friends or being active by going for a run or riding my bike. I also enjoy a weekly before-school swim and coffee with Mr Sam, Miss Gannon and Mr Heath.

Miss Brittany

(3B Teacher)

I grew up in Bendigo and moved to Melbourne when I was 19 to study! At first when I left school I wanted to be a fashion designer, but decided to study education and it was the BEST decision ever! When I'm not at school I love getting out and about to restaurants and cafes, shopping and being as creative as I can be! My biggest creative outlet at the moment is baking, where I create custom cakes, cupcakes and cookies whenever I have a spare moment.

Miss Karen

(3C Teacher)

I've really enjoyed being at PMPS so far, working alongside the Year 3 team and of course getting to know the wonderful students and families of 3CD!

I grew up in Perth and moved to Melbourne nine years ago for a change. Outside of teaching, I enjoy cross-stitching and crafting (I took up pottery recently and I'd like to learn to crochet one day), going camping with my partner, going to the footy (go Freo!!), playing board games and catching up with friends.

Favourite sport: AFL
My favourite subject (when I was at school): Art and Maths
How long I've taught at PMPS: I'm a PMPS newbie this year.

Miss Poppy

(3D Teacher)

I am from England and moved to Melbourne 11 years ago. This will be my eleventh year teaching at PMPS. I am 37 years old and I live in Melbourne with my fiancé. Living in the city is fab because there is always so much to do!

I have a mum and dad and a younger sister who all live in England. My sister is married with two young daughters and I am always so excited to fly out and see them. When I am not at school I love to draw and colour, listen to music, sing, catch up with friends for lunch, and read LOTS of books! My favourite food is pasta and Oliver Jeffers is my favourite children’s author.

What I'm reading right now: I love fantasy novels.
My favourite subject (when I was at school): I loved Maths and Art when I was at school.
How long I've taught at PMPS: 11 years.
