Year 5 Teachers and TAs

Miss Philo, Farah Teacher and Year 5 Leader

 

"Hello! I'm Miss Philo, Farah Class teacher and Year 5 Leader. I am really excited to welcome you to Year 5 and I know that we are all going to have a brilliant year together! 

 

I have been a teacher for quite a few years now and am lucky to have worked in Years 1, 3, 4 and 5, spending many happy years doing the job I love. My favourite lessons to teach are English and History and I also enjoy helping out with athletics club after school. 

 

Outside of school, I am happiest when beside the sea. I am lucky to live right by the beach, so you will often find me there, come rain or shine. I also love baking, going on long walks outdoors and, of course, shopping!"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mrs Waghorn, Farah TA

 

My name is Mrs Waghorn and I am the Teaching Assistant in Farah class. I  really enjoy working in Year 5 and can’t wait to work with you all. My favourite thing about Year 5 is the Christmas play! I love getting to make the props with the children and using LOTS of glitter!! When I am not at work I like to watch Disney films with my family and I love to go shopping with
my 2 daughters. I also like looking after my 2 Guinea Pigs.

 

 

Mrs Gray, Shakespeare Teacher

 

Hello, I am Mrs Gray and I have been at Minterne for a few years now. I have worked in year 4 and now, currently, a teacher in year 5. 

I really enjoy teaching and have worked across different ages and schools for over 10 years! 

I am also in charge of PE here at Minterne, which I love! I play netball myself and love keeping active and fit. I think it goes without saying that my favourite subject to teach is PE! 

I am a busy bee and when I am not at work, I am running around looking after my own children!

Mrs Attwood, Shakespeare TA

 

"Hi I'm Mrs Attwood and have worked at Minterne for many years over all of the year groups.  I enjoy helping the children with their learning and watching them in their productions which they perform throughout the year.

 

Outside of work, I run a lot and have run the London Marathon twice, I also like to watch my son play football and spend time with my family and our dog."

Mrs Webb, Adele Teacher

 

"Hello I am Mrs Webb, one of the Year 5 teachers. I have worked at Minterne for a really long time across all of the year groups but Year 5 is my favourite (sshhh don’t tell the others!) We learn about lots of fun and exciting topics and read some amazing books. My favourite lesson to teach is maths and I love a fun science experiment too. In my spare time I enjoy getting out and about with my dog and I love a holiday in the sunshine with my own children."

Ms Ambury, Adele TA

 

"So here goes!

1. I have two dogs called Maple and Marshall who I love to walk.

2. I am happiest with a football at my feet!

3. I love fast cars, fast planes and fast bikes. One day I would love my own motorbike!

4. My five year old daughter says I am best at ironing and hoovering!

5. I love being a bit silly and doing things with a smile because it makes you feel better!" 

Miss Holsten, Adele TA

 

I am Miss Holsten. I'm a teaching assistant in Adele. I have worked at Minterne for about 8 months now, but I love it!  I love helping the children with their learning; everyday there is something new to learn, even for me.  When I am not in school, I love taking my own children out on lots of adventures, and watching Disney films with lots and lots of popcorn!
