Since 2004 I have been a Local Councillor and I work part time at Coleg y Cymoedd. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family and my interests include walking and outdoor activities.

I was born in Trecynon and spent 8 happy years at Aberdare Park Primary School. I enjoyed all aspects of school life including performances, sport and memorable school trips including one to France. When I was In Year 6, I was appointed Headteachers Prefect. The education and experience I received at the school certainly put me in good stead for life.

I am passionate about Education and Learning and I am delighted to have returned to the school as a Governor, a position I have held for the past XX years. The Staff and Governors at Aberdare Park Primary have high aspirations for all pupils and the wellbeing of the pupils is at the heart of all aspects of the school.

As the Chair of Governors I am committed to supporting the school as I believe we have a duty to ensure that all young people get the best possible life chances through education – ‘Every Child, Every Opportunity, Every Day’!
