My favourite thing about ECS is the children. They're very well-mannered and behaved and make the school a joy to work at. As an Early Years practitioner I love to get involved with the children's interest and make their play come to life. I see myself as a creative person and love to see the children explore their creative side in both the indoor and outdoor environment. My favourite children's book is Little Rabbit Foo Foo by Michael Rosen which is also loved by the children. My hobbies are baking, making jewellery, doing adventurous activities and spending quality time with friends and family.

I am really excited to start my teaching career with ECS. The staff are amazing, they really care about the children's education and this is shown in all lessons around the school. The work is celebrated every day which is fantastic as it allows children to become proud of their work and show it off to the whole school! My wish is to help all children find a love for exercise and sports, I don't want it to feel like a boring chore! I am really passionate about teaching geography and sports. I have come from a competitive swimming background, so in my spare time I love to go swimming myself as well as coach swimming.
