Year 6

Mrs A Whitley

Teacher (USA)

My interests: I love spending time and going out with my family and friends, particularly my little girl. Sport also plays a big part in my life and I play football, usually in defence, for Northop Hall Ladies FC and I am also the Captain. Going to the gym is something else that I really enjoy and I support Liverpool. This is my 20th year in teaching and my favourite subjects to teach are PE and Maths. 

A fun fact about me: When I was younger I was a mascot for Liverpool and I walked onto the pitch with John Barnes, who is my all time favourite player.  


Mr M Haxell

My interests:  I love all sports and keeping fit and I like to play football with my friends and go paddling on my kayak. I like all things computing and reading books about history. I’ve been a teacher for 5 years now and I love doing fun lessons and activities with the children I teach.

A fun fact about me: When I was younger, I once fell into a penguin enclosure at a zoo and got chased by a lot of very hungry penguins.

My Interests: I love to get out walking. I head somewhere in the UK every  summer for a week to walk in pastures new.

I walk twice a day with my dog Luna who is a Staffy cross and has boundless energy.

I’ve been lucky enough to travel quite a bit and have lived in numerous places including Hong Kong and  Germany for 10 years which is where I first went to work in schools.

I love hosting murder mystery parties for my family and watching the competitiveness of siblings trying to out act each other .

Fun fact about me: I have met Prince Philip and completed an army assault course for the SSAFA charity.

I enjoy cooking new recipes and have a collection of cookery books from around the world.

I love visiting and exploring new places, one of my favourite places I have travelled to is Rome.

I have worked as a teaching assistant/learning mentor for 23 years which I very much enjoy.
