All About Me

I have had the pleasure of working at Newton Westpark for the past 14 years. I have worked in Year 2 for most of those years, welcoming and watching many children blossom into wonderful young adults. I recently became a Nurture Lead Practitioner which has been my dream job for many years; I get to spend time with my amazing Skylarks ! I have been married for nearly 18 years and have two beautiful daughters and a dog, who is my fur baby. I love gardening, cleaning/organising, writing poetry, watching tv series and I love to draw !
