Mr C Payne, Class 19 teacher (p/t)

I have been working at Oldway for 2 years now and I love it here. Being an HLTA has enabled me to teach every class in the school and build relationships with pupils from nursery right through to year 6. I especially enjoy working with younger children and so I am so excited to be teaching in reception this year. 

Beyond the classroom, I am involved in a number of different clubs. I particularly enjoy being involved with the performing arts and gymnastics clubs because I am passionate about teaching children the value of creativity and expression.

Sport is another important aspect of my life. I grew up playing sport every day and I've never really stopped. My favourites are swimming, football and running.

Outside of school I do my best to stay creative! I do my own art and one of my favourite things to do is to play drums in the worship band at church.
