Hello, my name is Mrs Saunders and I teach Churchill Class. I started working at Sandhurst Primary School in January 2012, teaching the year 4/5 class. Currently, I am in my ninth year of teaching the year 6 class and I really enjoy helping to prepare the children for secondary school. I am incredibly lucky to work in such a friendly, nurturing and supportive school and have loved the past eleven years. PE is my specialism and I thoroughly enjoyed being PE and Sport Coordinator for four years before passing the baton to Miss Lett. I now have responsibility for leading maths, English and topic across the school.

For the past nine years, I have been Assistant Headteacher with responsibility for Learning and Teaching. I love visiting all the classes across the school and organising whole school events. One of my favourite weeks of the year is Book Week. Each year we have a different theme; last year was “Celebrations” and I got to dress up as, no other than, Peter Rabbit, celebrating one hundred and twenty years of Peter Rabbit.

As the year 6 teacher, I am also responsible for the annual leavers’ production. Every year I am left amazed and in awe of our children’s incredible talents and I feel privileged to be able to provide a platform for them to showcase these.
