The Arts have been a huge part of my life since a young age and so I decided to
open this school to share my life experiences and my love for the Arts with you.
I have danced, sang and acted since the the age of 4 and went on through my life
to compete with dance across the country. I graduated with a Drama BA Honours
Degree and during this study time, I ran workshops in a range of settings and
learnt how drama can help impact people’s lives for the better. I went on to
become a successful Primary School Teacher in the Enfield Borough and have been
teaching here for the past 12 years. During this time, I became a ‘Performing
Arts’ and ‘Literacy’ leader, driving these areas to become successful within
different schools. I explored and embedded many programs including ‘Literacy
Through Art’ and the ‘Power of Reading’ and saw children’s thirst for books,
drama and art thrive! Children became better readers and loved exploring various
stories through drama strategies. I still run INSET training for teachers and
Newly Qualified Teachers on ‘Literacy through Art’ – showing how art can help
impact writing skills and broaden children’s imaginations whilst raising
attainment, building confidence and a love for art.
