Year 4

I joined the team at Lanivet in 2018, after teaching at another local primary school for 9 years. Fostering a love of learning and ensuring all the children in my class are happy at school are my main aims as a teacher. I enjoy teaching in a cross curricular way to allow children to make links and deepen their understanding of our topics. When I’m not at school, I spend lots of time exploring Cornwall with my family; I especially enjoy going to the beach or cycling along the Camel Trail.

For me, reading is one of my favourite ways to relax. Even now as an adult, some of my favourite books are the Harry Potter stories by JK Rowling; I love getting lost in their magical adventures and comparing their school days to ours!

I have been a teacher at Lanivet since 2020 and embrace the diversity that school life brings. As a teacher, I love to share my passion and enthusiasm for new learning by creating cross curricular lessons that create excitement, curiosity and discovery about the world we live. I strive for children to feel happy and safe at school so they are able to thrive and achieve. When I’m not at school, I spend time exploring different destinations with my family and making precious memories.

I love to read and listen to books which are full of adventure, mystery and discovery so I can use my imagination and be taken into a magical world of wonder.
