I live in Framwellgate Moor near to school and Front Street, and remember around here from the 1970s. I was recently a lunchtime school supervisor and 20 years ago was in a children’s charity in London, working full time and bringing up four children after their dad, my husband died. The children were always our first priority, and remain so. These experiences have given me an understanding of the struggles facing children and families today. I aim to serve this school well, doing the best I can, as a school governor.
