Class Teacher - Kindy Mighty Explorers  

• What was your first day at School/GEPS like?

  - My first day at GEPS was exciting, but also a little nerve racking! I remember being welcomed by such a friendly and supportive school community. It didn’t take long for GEPS to feel like home, and over the years I have been lucky to build so many special relationships with students, families and staff.

• What are 3 words to describe your school Journey?

  - Rewarding

  - Inspiring

  - Memorable

• What is something new you've learned this year?

  - This year I’ve learned even more about the importance of giving children opportunities to take ownership of their learning. Through play, exploration, collaboration and the 4Cs, I’ve seen just how capable our youngest learners are when we give them the opportunity to be curious, creative and confident.

• If your learning journey was a vehicle (rocket, bike, boat etc) what would it be and why?

  - My learning vehicle would be an aeroplane because it can take me to so many different places and give me opportunities to grow, learn and see things from new perspectives. Even if there's a few bumps and some turbulence along the way, every part of the journey will help me learn, grow and shape  the teacher and learner that I will continue to become,  and I’m still excited to see where it takes me next!

• If you could go on an adventure anywhere, where would you go and who would you take with you?

  - I would love to travel around Europe, exploring beautiful places, experiencing different cultures and, of course, trying lots of amazing food! I would take my son Julian with me because the best adventures are the ones you get to experience and remember together.

• What was your first day at School/GEPS like?

  - My first day at GEPS was like anything you do for the first time, I was nervous but everyone made me feel so welcome that I soon felt more comfortable.

• What are 3 words to describe your school Journey?

  - Challenging 

  - Fun 

  - Rewarding 

• What is something new you've learned this year?

  -  How to setup a drop-down menu in Microsoft excel 😊

• If your learning journey was a vehicle (rocket, bike, boat etc) what would it be and why?

  - A boat, because sometimes it is smooth sailing and sometimes it is choppy. You can manage any vehicle as long as you keep an open mind and are willing to learn new things and work hard.

• If you could go on an adventure anywhere, where would you go and who would you take with you?

  - I would love to go to a tropical island with my family, because everyday is an adventure with them.
