ABOUT ME

 

This website is based on my research and enquiry about visual literacy for studies incorporated in my Master of Education Teacher-Librarianship degree.

 

I trained as a Visual Art teacher over 20 years ago but for the last 10 years or more I have not taught as I needed time to raise my family and give special attention to a child with higher needs.  In the last two years, I have returned to teaching only in a relief capacity and short contracts and have been fortunate enough to engage again with my first love of Visual Art teaching.  I have also had an amazing time spent in both a middle secondary school library and a primary school library during my teacher-librarian journey. 

 

The remainder of my time is spent still running a small contracting business with my husband and being a mum to Miss Eleven (year 6), Master Nineteen (university student) and my Master Twenty (our apprentice).

 

My great loves in life are my family, living on a rural property, inspirational art and of course, books.  It was my love of art, literacy and learning that drew me to begin my Master of Education in Teacher-Librarianship.

 

This space is informed by my teaching and study in a broad range of contexts.  It also relies on my observations and engagements with my own children, especially that of my Miss Eleven, who shares my passions for art and literature.

Success! Message received.
