A little about me… I have taught at MBIS for the last 8 years in three different year groups. Prior to working at MBIS I taught in London. My interests outside of school include my horse and all things horse-related! I also practise yoga when I can and am an avid reader. Oh and I love to go on safari when I have enough money in my piggy bank!
