I am returning to St Gabriel after leaving when my daughter was born. She is now at Bishop Dubourg where one of my St Gabriel students is now her teacher, what a small world. I am excited to be able to share my love of reading, writing and exploring literature with grade 5. When not at school you can find me outside or in the kitchen. I love cooking, eating and sharing food and stories with friends and family.
