Mrs Wiskow

I am passionate about education and try to make learning fun in my classroom. Children need to be motivated to learn well. Outside the classroom my other passion is for horses of which I am lucky enough to own two. I also have a Rhodesian Ridgeback called Kito.

Hi! I

Mrs Harrop

Mrs Harrop

I am very excited to begin my next chapter at Rode Heath Primary School as a teaching assistant. After twenty years as a teacher, I have opted for a change and I love it.
I live with my husband, our two young girls and our 24 chickens. In my spare time I love to go on mini adventures with my girls, either to new parks, National Trust places, find new places to walk or go out for dinner. We particularly love going up to the Scottish Highlands and spending time in a family holiday home and exploring the lochs, walking and getting lots of fresh air. I also love gardening and baking lots of delicious treats for family and friends! I am looking forward to working with the Year 4 children this year.
