Welcome
to Chestnut (Year 2)
Mrs Sharp
Meet your teacher
Hello, my name is Mrs Sharp and I cannot wait to meet you all!
I love to read, especially the Harry Potter books. I love story-time and I always make sure we have time to listen to a story during the day. I wonder what story we will read first!
I also love being outside, going on walks and exploring the countryside with my children. I have a dog called Luna and we love taking her for long walks.
My favourite subject is history. I absolutely love learning about the past with my class and loved learning about the Great Fire of London. I cannot wait to learn about something new in September!
Meet your Teaching Assistant
Mrs Markham
Hello, I’m Mrs Markham and I will be working in Year 2 with lots of children who already know me. I will also be meeting lots of new faces and I cannot wait to get to know you all a little better. I have two beautiful boys called Riley and Lewis who I’m sure you will hear about from time to time. I like being outdoors and going camping with my family. My favourite place is Scotland, where I have made lots of memories on our holidays and adventures throughout the years.
I cannot wait to spend more time getting to know you all.
