💙Escape Room Fundraiser💙 Children in Key Stage 2 have been enjoying an 'escape room' challenge this week created by the Year 6 prefects. They have had to work in a team to solve puzzles and pick up clues from the cast of creepy characters!

It’s Meet The Team Monday! Today we are meeting Alice, our EYFS and KS1 Maths Leader. Alice also teaches Walnut Class in Reception at present, but has taught classes across the school from Year 4 to Year 1 in her years at Jubilee! Let’s find out a little more about her… What is special about working at Jubilee and why do you love working here? We have such an amazing team of staff here at Jubilee, who I am lucky to work alongside. I genuinely feel privileged to spend my days with such an inspiring group of people. And of course the children, they are who we’re all here for. I love getting to know them and watching them grow and develop into special individuals throughout their Jubilee life. Describe your perfect Saturday? Simple things. Enjoying my morning coffee without running to class, getting outdoors and going for a long walk. I like to get up to Hampstead Heath- my favourite spot. And then having dinner and chats with my friends and family. Putting the world to rights. Tell us about any special skills, interests or hobbies you may have I like running, swimming and cycling. I compete in triathlons, half marathons and am currently training for my first full marathon (wish me luck)! I’m often found taking a dip in the west reservoir or clocking up miles round the marshes and along the canal. I’m vegan so enjoy discovering how many different ways one can prepare tofu! Who was your role model growing up? I am lucky to be the granddaughter of two amazing females. My maternal grandmother was an incredibly smart woman, who inspired me to travel, embrace and celebrate differences and think critically. My paternal grandmother was a nurse, during wartime and beyond. She was the most caring and nurturing women I’ve known, who made us feel safe and loved. I try to carry them with me always and embody them where I can. #Meettheteammonday #jubileeprimaryschool #jubileeprimarystokenewington #jubileeprimaryschoolhackney #hackneychildren #inspiringimaginations #stokenewington #stokeyfolks #stokeyparents #stokeyfamilies #n16

It’s Meet the Team Monday! This week we are meeting George, our Assistant Head. George leads Maths in Key Stage 2, in addition to leading Upper Key Stage 2, and teaching in Year 6. Let’s find out a little more about him… What is special about working at Jubilee and why do you love working here? Jubilee is such a warm and welcoming place to come and work every day. The children are kind, compassionate and a pleasure to teach! Describe your perfect Saturday: A run or long walk to start the day. Then I'm either watching a football match, trying my best to cook a new dish or catching up with friends. Tell us about any special skills, interests or hobbies you may have: Running is a hobby of mine which helps me unwind and relax. I even managed to run the London marathon a few years ago! I'm also very passionate about football and often go to watch my favourite football team at the weekend. I also self-taught myself to play the guitar although this is definitely work in progress! Who was your role model growing up? I'd have to say both of my parents. They always encouraged me to learn and try new things. My mum has always worked in education was definitely a factor in me becoming a Primary school teacher. My Dad has always taught me to work hard and never give in. #Meettheteammonday #meetthestaffmonday #jubileeprimaryschool #jubileeprimarystokenewington #jubileeprimaryschoolhackney #hackneychildren #inspiringimaginations #stokenewington #stokeyfolks #stokeyparents #stokeyfamilies #n16
