STAFF NEWS August Newsletter

Jahleea Gottshalk Congratulations to Jahleea from our Goslings room who has passed her apprenticeship with flying colours and qualifies as a qualified practitioner from the end of August. From September, Jahleea will be working part time in all of our rooms as she embarks on her next venture to University.

Holly Griffin As from August 12th, Holly will be moving from the Swans room to the Goslings room. Holly has been fantastic in the Swans room and it will be sad to see her leave, however, for her professional development, Holly has the opportunity to gain experience with a different age group. We look forward to Holly bringing her bubbly personality and positive energy to our Goslings room.

Alia Ahmad We would like to introduce you to Alia Ahmad who will be joining our Swans team on Wednesday 14th August as a ‘Qualified Practitioner’. Alia has a wealth of experience working with preschool aged children in both Dubai and the UK. We look forward to Alia bringing her skills and ideas to the Swans room. “Hello, my name is Alia. I am very excited to be joining the Swans room! I have a BA Hons degree in Childhood Studies, and I have completed my PGCEi course whilst working in Dubai.

I have been teaching for many years mainly in Leeds, as well as London for 3 years and Dubai for 4 years. I have always taught in pre-school as I find this is the perfect age group to explore and be adventurous while learning and having fun in the process. It is wonderful to see children excel in different areas as well as realise their own individuality and interests as they grow. I have always been passionate about teaching and seeing children reach their full potential. I am looking forward to joining such a positive and motivated team and bring lots of new and fun ideas to the room.”
