Welcome message:

I went to a small Primary School for seven years and was elected as a School Captain in my final year. Our small school has multi-age classes and all the children played together regardless of their age during recess and lunchtime. We would quite often have whole school activities and games. In Year 6, I was a buddy to a prep student. We read to them and organised fun activities.

Our family has many friends with young children. I enjoy playing and organising activities for them.
