MEET OUR HEAD OF HOUSE

A change of career brought me to boarding and a realisation that working with children was where I truly belonged.

The boarders would probably describe me as calm, insightful and fair, and I hope that comes through in the little things, the life skills and the support I offer.


With counselling trainings and decades of experience in boarding, along with what I’ve learnt as a mother, I try to create a home where students feel safe to laugh, grow, and just be themselves. My favourite moments are always the spontaneous ones, when groups of students relax and laugh together. When I’m not in the house, you’ll most likely find me exploring the world somewhere off the beaten track.
