Heather – Early Childhood Teacher

Originally from Scotland, I moved to Yorkshire and kept travelling south until I settled in Australia over twenty years ago. Following a career which involved children was a natural progression for me as I loved being one, and coming from a large family I always loved being around children. I gained a Nursery Nurse Diploma in England and hold an Advanced Diploma in Children’s Services. I then completed by Early Childhood Education degree in 2014. My special interests are social and emotional intelligence, resilience, empathy, social justice, literacy and numeracy, and the creative arts.
