Teacher

Vanessa Hamilton-Toohey

I am a mum to three children who keep me very busy and occupy most of my time outside of work.. I enjoy listening, singing and dancing to music although this is either in the kitchen or in the car. As a family we enjoy going to the Theatre to watch musicals and pantomimes plus being outdoors - whether that be the beach, walking on the moors or exploring in the woods.

I believe in creating a learning environment where every child is valued as an individual, with unique strengths, challenges, and potential. My role is to cultivate an atmosphere where all students feel a sense of belonging, safety, and respect, so they can grow and flourish to the best of their abilities. I strive to be a source of inspiration, not just through my teaching, but through my actions demonstrating resilience, curiosity, and a love for learning. I am deeply committed to building positive relationships with my students, getting to know them as individuals, and providing them with the tools they need to succeed not only academically, but as compassionate, thoughtful, and confident individuals.
