Welcome to Starlings!
I wanted to take the opportunity to introduce myself; my name is Rachel Campbell and I am delighted to announce that I am the new teacher for the Starlings class at Kirkby Thore Primary School.
This will be my first term at the school, having officially started last week. I’ve previously worked in Cumbrian and Lancashire schools, specialising in Early Years and Key Stage 1 year groups.
I have had the delight of meeting the Starlings class last week, for their first week of the academic year. I am looking forward to meeting you throughout the course of the year.
Please see some key information for this academic year:
I will be instilling the school’s motto of ‘Aim High’ throughout, whether it be on school work, making friendships, or being part of the school community.
As a topic starter, I’ll start with a little ‘About Me’. Having grown up in the area, I’m often found walking around the lovely Eden Valley, appreciating all its natural beauty and wildlife. I enjoy art, reading, yoga, and appreciate all areas of performing arts. Alongside my teaching degree, I studied an undergraduate in Drama.
This year, Mrs Rimmer (Teaching Assistant) and Miss Fisher (Apprentice TA) will also be working with your child in Starlings.
I’m looking forward to being your child’s teacher this year!
Kind regards,
Rachel Campbell
