Pluto Class Teacher

Hi,

I’m Emily, and I am very excited to be starting in my new role as EYFS/Year 1 teacher. I have worked in Early years for over 17 years and I am passionate about delivering an enriched curriculum to suit all of our learners.  

3 facts about me: 

1. I have two young children, Nell and Luke. We love camping in our campervan, going for family bike rides and taking our dog for a walk. 

2. I have recently started playing netball which I hadn’t played since school and love getting to play competitively each week! I have run two half marathons and love keeping fit and healthy. 

3. I have 6 brothers and sisters and 7 nieces and nephews! Christmas at my house is very busy
