I love seeing the students using their own initiative when presenting their ideas. I love seeing their enthusiasm.
Outside of school I love to spend time with my family and play team sports with them. I love playing instruments and going to different places.

Our Lady's has been part of my life for many years. I came here as a student a long time ago, my daughter came here and I have been working as an Education Support Officer for the past 8 years.

It's great working with the staff and engaging with the students, and seeing the developments they make throughout the year.
