Mrs Lawrence

I am Emerald Class Teacher. I have worked at Homer for 18 years and I have been lucky to work across all year groups. My favourite lessons to teach are Maths (as I enjoy numbers and finding patterns) and History/Geography (finding out about past events and the world around us). I live in Windsor with my husband. I have 3 children and a dog called Odie. Outside of school I enjoy socialising with family and friends, walking my dog and watching football. I am very excited about this year and looking forward to getting to know all the children. I am planning lots of fun activities to support and extend the learning in the classroom.

Miss Carlton

I am Emerald Class Teaching Assistant. I joined Homer when my two sons were pupils here and I enjoyed it so much that I am still working here 20 years later! When I am not at school I spend time with friends, shopping and eating out. I am really looking forward to working and having fun together throughout the coming year.

Mrs Bleach

I teach lots of classes across the school. I love teaching Science and Music and I also lead the singing assemblies. I enjoy putting on shows and performances across the school. You'll often hear me singing or humming to myself as I walk around. You might also see me in the school gardens with Homer Growers, making our outside area look good. I am looking forward to being in Emerald this year and teaching you new things!

Mrs Cooper

I am also a Teaching Assistant in Emerald. I have been at the school for 14 years and have worked in both EYFS, KS1 and KS2. Outside school I enjoy spending time with my family especially my grandchildren. I am really looking forward to working with all the children in Emerald class this year.
