I have loved my time at St Stephen's with its super staff, fantastic children and friendly,  supportive parents. 

It is truly a great place to be, and I know that the children here get the best possible all round education.

Being involved in the choir has been a huge pleasure, and I will not forget our rendition of Mr Blue Sky at the Rose Theatre any time soon! I have loved my time as art co-ordinator, working closely with our wonderful art teacher, Ruth Garner. We have loved expanding our curriculum to include some new artists for our children. This will be s special memory for me.

I first joined the St Stephen's community 10 years ago when my older daughter started in Reception. Five years later I joined as a teacher and have worked across the school in different roles in Reception and KS1.  I even had a go at being in the office when they were short staffed! Although, I am not sure how helpful I was!! For the last few years I have job shared with Nicola Collins and the rest of the excellent Year Two team. I have loved it and had lots of fun. I will miss them and the children very much.

Alongside working at St Stephen's, I have been running my nutrition business and from September I will be doing this fulltime and focusing on Food clubs, community workshops and Food Education in general. In fact, I am not really leaving as I will be here in September running clubs.

St Stephen's is a very special place, filled with brilliant people and I have been very lucky to have had lots of fun here, from being involved in FOSS, class repping, supporting at sporting events, wellbeing week with Margot the dog, food tech, working with lots of different staff and parents and, of course, our amazing children who are the best. Thank you all very much, I feel very lucky and I am truly, truly grateful.
