Why are you involved with Montessori education?
We all learn in different ways and I see adolescent students thrive in the community where they are given so many opportunities to choose but are aware that they are also responsible for the choices they make.

What year did you commence at MIC?
2015

How would you describe what you do?
My role is to work alongside the students, to give them opportunities to get closer to nature and to allow them to engage in real and meaningful work.

What’s your favourite thing about your role?
To have the opportunity to share my passion for organic living, to see the wonder of the child when handling chickens, gathering the still warm eggs and picking fresh vegetables. To see the cycles of life through the eyes of nature.
