Mrs Gemma Cornes – Co-opted Governor

A little bit about me…

I have been working at Beechdale Nursery School for nearly 4 years.  My love of teaching grows each and everyday, to see how the children develop in such a short space of time amazes me and I love working with the passionate team of people we have here at Beechdale.  I have a real love of the outdoors and this has taken off with the development of Forest School within County Durham and Beechdale.  I currently have a little girl who is almost 2 years, and spend my spare time sharing magical moments with her and my husband… and 2 dogs!

My favourite children’s book is…

Scaredy Squirrel

My favourite thing to do in school is…

Follow the children’s interests and respond in magical ways, making learning meaningful and exciting.  And taking part in our Forest School sessions.
