I have worked in this sector for over 30 years. I am passionate about the early years, and making a difference to the lives of our children and families.
The children are at the centre of everything we offer at the nursery and I truly believe, as Froebel states ‘ That play is the most important resource that children have to help them to grow, learn and connect with people, the world around them and their imagination.
I am a Forest school leader and a Yoga Champion for Norfolk, and love sharing my skills with the children, staff and parents who attend.
Outside nursery I love to be outdoors, travelling,camping, walking and going to the forest and beach with my Collie Oak and two grandsons. My favorite holiday was three weeks touring Norway.

Fun fact – I lived in Greece for 5 years and can speak quite a bit of Greek! Both my children went to North Elmham Primary School, and I’ve been teaching here for 7 years now, so this place holds a special place in my heart ️
I teach in Sheep Class and you probably all know that my passions are teaching and learning outside. I love nothing better than exploring in all weathers. When I’m not at school I like to play with fire and hammers, making jewellery out of silver which I sell in a few shops. I have two boys who are now much taller than me. You might not know that when I was a little girl my Mum and Dad bought a manor house with 5 other families and we shared it with them. I used to pretend to be a teacher in an old chicken hut in the garden and ‘teach’ all the other children!

I danced as soon as I could walk, I particularly love ballet and have passed my love of dancing onto my daughter. We love going to the theatre, whether we are watching a musical, ballet or the panto!

I’m Mrs Hobbs and I’m a teaching assistant here at Stibbard All Saints. I was lucky to LOVE primary school when I was a child and feel passionately that ALL children have the right to experience the same here at Stibbard. My favourite things to help children learn are phonics and reading but I also love it when children juts have random chats with me and their true characters shine through. You never know where a conversation may take you with a child!
I love books and watching children flourish into confident and resilient readers makes me feel very happy. I firmly believe that if we can help foster a love of books at a young age then this special skill will last a lifetime. I believe in our school values and endorse our belief of having high expectations of our children that teaches them to be resilient, respectful and kind. I love working with a great team of staff here at Stibbard All Saints and they’d probably describe me as bonkers and a chatter box! I love to make people laugh which can make me a little bit naughty at times and makes for a noisy staff room some days!
I have two teenage boys who both attended Stibbard and they loved it here.
I live with them and Mr Hobbs as well as our two crazy cockapoos! Our family are huge Formula 1 fans, the Hobbs boys love Go karting. Music is also a huge part of our family- Mr.Hobbs is a drummer so it can get very loud in our house! My absolute fave hobby is eating (counts as an hobby right?!) and sampling my husband’s lovely cooking. I enjoy walking our dogs in the woods and spending time with my family. I always look forward to the summer holidays when I get to travel with the Hobbs family and visit new places and of course eat more delicious foods from different cultures! A few fun facts about me are that I’m a real country girl at heart….I love the countryside as I grew up on my Grandad’s farm which grew parsnips for supermarkets. I used to pack the parsnips into bags when I was a little girl! I also used to play the bass guitar (badly!) I wanted to get into a band but failed miserably.
Stibbard is a great school to be part of and we really do have a happy family feel at our school where everyone is welcome.
Reception Teacher
Fun fact: I used to play ten pin bowling for Norfolk and England.
I’m Emily and I’m the TA in Reception class. I asked my eight year old to help me write a bit about me, and she said, ‘You’re nice and you bake really good cookies!’ I do love to cook, I have two dogs and two chickens, and I love a good kitchen disco. At school, I enjoy doing yoga and mindfulness with the children I work with.
