Meet your teacher

Miss Bell

Hi, I’m Miss Bell, and I’m proud to be the Head of Early Years. I’ve been working in education for over 20 years and have taught in many different schools and across most primary year groups. Before taking on this role, I spent several years as an Assistant Head, which gave me a real appreciation for the importance of early learning and creating a nurturing, inspiring environment for young children.

I’m also a mum to a gorgeous little boy who is truly the centre of my world, and we share our home with our lovely cat, Minnie. When I’m not at school, I love good food; especially Italian and I really enjoy relaxing on holiday with my collection of audiobooks.

CLASS 3

Meet your teacher

Mrs Grady

Hello, My name is Mrs Grady and I can’t wait to be your new teacher next year! I will be new to Monkwood Primary School just like you and I can’t wait to explore the classroom and outside area with you all! I have been a teacher for over 20 years and I love teaching in EYFS! I have been working in Wickersley Partnership Trust for the last 2 years. I love being creative and reading books and I can’t wait to share some of my favourites with you. I have 2 children and 2 cats and love to spend my time with them. We love spending time visiting theme parks and exploring new places.

Meet your Early Years Practitioners

Miss mullins

Hi I am Miss Mullins and I’ve been part of Monkwood Primary School for over 20 years, and throughout most of that time, I’ve had the joy of working in Early Years. Supporting young children as they take their first steps into school life is something I’m incredibly passionate about, and I feel so lucky to be a part of their journey. At home, I’m a busy mum to three amazing children who I absolutely adore. They keep me on my toes, and I wouldn’t have it any other way!

Mrs sherwood

My name is Mrs Sherwood, and I’m so excited to be working with your class this year! I’ve been an Early Years Practitioner at Monkwood for 14 years, and it’s a job I truly enjoy. Helping children learn, play, and grow is something I’m really passionate about.

When I’m not at school, I spend lots of time with my wonderful little girl. We love getting creative together, especially when it involves singing, dancing, and having a good giggle! We also enjoy family days out and long walks with our cheeky dog, Eddie. Even at 15 years old, he’s full of energy and always keeps us on our toes!

In my spare time, one of my favourite hobbies is photography. I love taking pictures special moments, and all the little things that make life joyful.

I can’t wait to get to know each and every one of you, and I’m really looking forward to a fun-filled year ahead!

Miss Benton

Hello everyone my name is Miss Benton. I love anything to do with arts and crafts and you will often find me in our Creative Area. I love painting and also sharing my skills to help you to become an amazing Artist. At home I enjoy long walks in the countryside and coming home to read a fabulous book. I also love football, supporting the mighty Manchester United. I love to watch them play at Old Trafford or on the TV and cheer them on! I am so excited to start your Monkwood journey with you in Class 3. See you in September x
