Cherry Team
Mr Goodwin (Teacher)
Mrs Burch (Teacher)
A bit about me: After secondary school I studied Classical Studies and Philosophy at St Andrews University in Scotland. I saw Prince William a couple of times whilst being there, as his final year was my first year! Once I had completed my degree, I worked as a teaching assistant as well as in a secondary school office. I then trained as a teacher in 2010. I love being a teacher and watching the children develop their love for learning!
Favourite food: What a difficult question! I absolutely love Thai food but nothing too spicy. You also cannot beat an ice-cream – especially a Mr Whippy at the seaside – yum!
Hobbies: I enjoy playing table tennis and tennis. Wimbledon season is my favourite time of year! I also like watching lots of other sports, such as rugby, golf and athletics. I love dancing and particularly like Salsa Dancing. One of my favourite things is to keep up with the latest films and you may find me at the cinema at the weekends; as long as it’s not a horror film I’m okay! I also like history, so you may also find me at a castle or a Roman site or even a museum.
Mrs Ashford (Teaching Assistant)
A bit about me: Hello I am Mrs Ashford I love working at Walderslade Primary School - I am currently working in Cherry Class. When I am not at school I absolutely love going on holidays and lazying on a beach somewhere very hot!! Once I am back home I love taking our 3 dogs out for long walks and spending time with my family.
Favourite food: My favourite food is curry! But I also like fish and chips and pizza!
Hobbies: My hobbies are walking, watching football and because I'm looking after all my children, husband and pets I haven't really got much time for anything else! I'm pretty amazing at drama and comedy though, and directed the latest staff school pantomime as well as helping with the year 6 productions, where I become very animated!
