My Summary
About Me
Hello, my name is Donna.
I consider myself to be a warm, friendly person with a great sense of humour!
I strongly believe that children learn and thrive in a stimulating environment, I love the ‘curiosity’ approach for encouraging inquisitive learning.
I am also a fan of outdoor activities, there’s nothing you can do indoors that you can’t do outdoors.
Gardening is something I enjoy and like to involve children in, I have an allotment plot where we occasionally visit in warmer weather.
I love to read, cook and usually have a creative project on the go.
I have dogs, they are part of my family and have had children around them regularly as I have four grandchildren.
