LAURA GRAY – 1 YEAR
Laura has a quiet approach which has been highly valued over the year . She has worked hard to complete her apprenticeship and has really grown in confidence over the year . She has been particularly valued in After-School Care , where she has demonstrated endless patience with some very tired children . She is very gentle and calm , and has been a real help . Her maternal nature has been much appreciated by all the children and she is a kind listening ear when they ’ re having troubles . Thank you , Laura .
