Meet the Year 7 Tutors

Hello,

My name is Ms Glarvey and I am a Year 7 Transition Curriculum Teacher at Ysgol Harri Tudur/Henry Tudor School. I am really looking forward to meeting my new Year 7 classes and getting to know you all. You will spend around 40% of your time with me so I will be here to help you emotionally and academically through your transition from primary to secondary. We will cover a range of different subjects together including Humanities, Drama and Art. You will have lots of opportunities to develop all the various skills you will need in your learning at YHT, ranging from working with others to problem solving skills. I have really enjoyed teaching this curriculum for many years now and I’m sure you will enjoy it as much as I do.

I am a mum to 3 wonderful children and love spending time with my family. We have a pet dog named Cooper and he often accompanies me to school to spend time in the classroom. In my spare time I enjoy yoga, walking Cooper on the beach and travelling.

I look forward to meeting you all and helping you through your new and exciting time at YHT.

My name is Ms Sarrionandia and I am a year 7 transition curriculum teacher at YHT. I am really looking forward to meeting my new class, getting to know you all and helping you all to grow both academically and emotionally as you take the step from primary to secondary school pupils.

The transition curriculum takes up around 40% of your timetable in YHT and we cover a range of subjects including Humanities and Art. You will also have the opportunity to develop various skills that you will need to apply across all areas of learning in YHT, these range from problem solving skills, innovative creativity and working successfully as a group. I really enjoy teaching and can’t wait to share this enthusiasm and fantastic curriculum with my new class.

When I am not at work, I have 2 amazing daughters and I love spending time with them, I also have a huge love of animals. You will meet our dog named Blue as she often comes into class with us. We also have 2 cats, a hamster and a tortoise. In my spare time I love reading, gardening, swimming and walking Blue on one of our fantastic beaches or coastal paths.

I look forward to meeting you all and being part of your new journey at YHT.

Hello everyone!

My name is Mrs. Mackeen. I am in charge of the LRC and will be teaching 7 Lleu in September. I have spent 23 years as a science teacher in Pembroke School and Ysgol Harri Tudur and I cannot wait to share some exciting lessons with you! Moving up to secondary school can be a big step and I will be here to support you every step of the way.

I am really looking forward to exploring the transition curriculum, with all the different subjects that it covers, and learning more about you all. Over the year, we will work together to develop the skills that will help us in the future, whether that be problem solving and being creative on our own or working together in groups – our new curriculum will give us lots of opportunities to try new things!

Outside of work I am a mum to two brilliant boys and we share our house with our two cats, who are both quite grumpy. I love to read, watch rugby and American football and I try to go to the cinema as much as possible.

I am really looking forward to meeting you all and starting our exciting journey in September.

Mrs Mackeen.
