Interview with Kristy Smith

Year 2 Teacher

How long have you worked at BNPS?

I have worked at BNPS for 16 years. I’m almost part of the furniture.

Who inspires you?

Many people have inspired me at different times in my life. My mum continues to inspire me every day. She is hard working, kind, caring, giving and has achieved so much in her life whist remaining extremely humble.

She has been such an amazing role model for me.

What is your favourite thing to do on weekends?

I really enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I love to cook and share a delicious meal with them.

Are you an early bird or a night owl?

I am an early bird.

What might someone be surprised to know about you?

I am half Italian.

What recently made you smile?

Most things make me smile. I can always find the good in what’s around me.

If you could trade places with anyone for a day, who would you choose ?

I would choose to be my cat Chilli. He eats, plays and sleeps on repeat all day and think that would be a nice way to spend my day.

What would you like to say to your students?

Thank you for making my days at school so enjoyable and remember to always try your best.
