Welcome To Year 2

An Interview With Miss Murray

How long have you worked at Yanwath?

As an early career teacher, I’ve recently joined Yanwath and I’m excited to be part of the team!

What are some pets you’ve had or would like to own?

I used to have a hamster named Biscuit! I would love to have a dog because they’re playful and love to run around, or maybe a bunny because they’re so soft!

How do you spend your summer breaks?

During my summer breaks, I enjoy spending time with family and friends. I also enjoy travelling and exploring new places. One of my favourite things to do is to go hiking in the Lake District.

What are your “trapped on a desert island” books or movies?

Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone because it is magical and The Lion King because it has great songs. These choices would keep me happy and entertained while waiting for rescue!

If you won the lottery and decided to give up teaching, what would you do instead?

If I won the lottery I would travel the world.

How do you show your school spirit?

By getting stuck in anywhere and always having a smile in my face!

In which other teacher’s class would you like to enrol, even for a day? Why?

I would love to enrol in Miss Winter’s classroom so that I could read one of my favourite books in her reading corner in the ocean with the pirates!

What is the best thing about being a teacher?

The best thing about being a teacher is seeing children’s excitement when they solve a problem or master a new skill.

If you could pass on any wisdom to your students, what would you share?

To always believe in themselves and never be afraid to make mistakes because that’s how we learn and grow.
