I am adopting the TLAG incentive by embedding the GEMS essentials into my daily planning and delivery. Lessons are structured using the “I do, We do, You do” approach to scaffold learning and build independence.

I teach because I believe the early years are where a love of learning begins. It is a privilege to be part of those first steps, helping children feel safe, valued, and excited to explore the world around them.

For me, teaching is about building relationships, celebrating small moments, and helping each child shine in their own unique way.
