Gary Law

Headteacher
I love to spend time with my parents who live in Cheltenham. My hobbies include narrowboating with friends and helping out at Dean Forest Railway where I run Parkend Station once a month. I help at my local Cub Scout Pack and enjoy camping and going on hikes with them. I live in the Forest of Dean and enjoy the stunning scenery, especially when it snows!
 

Mandy Vince

Teacher - KS2

I enjoy learning something new and finding out about all sorts of things.  In the past two years I have learned to sail a dinghy (fair weather only!)  and how to crew on a yacht (without panicking too much when it tilts).  I have recently started researching my family history on the internet - no rich ancestors as yet but some interesting names and professions.

 

Lisa West

Teacher - Reception/KS1

I am married and have two little boys, my oldest has just started school.  I am a real family person and as you can imagine they take up lots of my time! As a family we love soft play, walks in the woods, swimming and cooking. We have almost completed the make over on our house although we all have a go at DIY including the boys. I love cheesy music and musicals as well as singing (not very well) and anything arty especially photography.

 

Sandra McConnochie

Teacher Reception/KS1

I am mum to two wonderful children; my son has just started secondary school and my daughter is at primary school. We have a pet hamster called “Hammy” who is very much part of our family. We take him away with us whenever we go to stay with family or friends!! I love to spend time with my family and friends and I also love to travel and visit other countries and cultures. We have recently bought a trampoline and my children love it when I join them to bounce and play games. Our favourite game is when we try to steal each others bounces!

Jean Deacon

Teaching Assistant

I am mother to three grown up children and a grandmother of one.  My hobbies include yoga and dancing plus reading and travel.  I seem to spend a lot of time wondering where my day went or visiting the vet with my large geriatric dog or slightly neurotic now tail-less cat.  When I grow up and if I have time I shall look up the meaning of procrastination.

Elaine Huggins

Teaching Assistant, Before & After School Club Supervisor, Lunchtime Supervisor

I have two children, Daniel and Sophie.  I absolutely adore pigs!  I got married in August 2009 and as a wedding present I was given two Kune Kune piglets, Percy and Betty.  I enjoy running and entered Race 4 Life this year.  Paula Radcliffe look out! 

Mandy Finch

Teaching Assistant and Lunch Time Supervisor

My husband and I live on a family run farm with our 3 children. We rear cattle, sheep and poultry. You will often find me in my garden growing my own fruit and veg, but I seem to do especially well growing weeds! I enjoy sewing, but my biggest passion is cooking.

Tonia Gillett

School Administrator

I moved to Ashleworth with my family in July 2009.  We are very lucky as we have a nice garden to play in - although I think the rabbits and squirrels spend more time playing in it than we do. I enjoy doing things as a family; we like skiing (although I'm always the last one) and we enjoy riding our bikes in the Forest of Dean - I'm usually last at that as well!

I like to make cards for friends and family and I am learning to play the saxophone at the minute - something I have wanted to do since I was at school.
