MEET OUR GOVERNORS..........
I have been a governor at New Milton Infant School since November 2018 and was elected Chair of Governors in September 2019. I became a governor as I wanted to contribute more to our local community and felt that my previous experience could be best used in the role of governor at my local school. I am passionate to see all members of the school community reach their full potential within a happy and stimulating environment.
I retired from teaching in 2010 having spent my whole career in Primary Education and the last 20 years in Leadership, firstly as a Deputy Head and then in 3 different headships. Since retiring I have cared for my father, enjoyed time with my family which includes many grandchildren and, with my husband, planted a church on the North Milton Estate.
I enjoy walking, reading, cooking and needlecrafts and spending time with family and friends.
I have served on the NMIS governing body for more than five years now, making me currently the longest standing governor. I am passionate about young children's education and care which stems partly from being a mother and grandmother myself. But also from the fact that, until I retired a few years ago, I was Professor of Early Childhood Education in Essex and for a long period of time prior to that, I had taught teachers who were training to teach 3-8 year-olds.
I am currently also involved in the local community as Secretary to New Milton Residents' Association and run various activities within that group. I enjoy gardening, reading, watercolour, computers, walking the dog and, of course, supporting the brilliant NMIS 'family'.
