Meet the teachers

Mrs Tong

Mrs Mills

Miss Hawking

Miss Clarke

Hello, my name is Miss Hawking. I am really excited to be joining you in Year 6 and know that we have a brilliant year ahead of us. We’ll be working hard and having lots of fun! I really enjoy teaching Literacy and Geography as well as Art and DT. I can’t wait to get started on making our own pencil cases.

Hello. I am Mrs Tong (formerly Calder). I have taught in year 6 for a number of years and really enjoy all of our topics. I particularly like science and maths. We are also lucky to have Mr Carter with us in my class to help us with all our subjects but particularly Games and Gymnastics.

Hello, my name is Miss Clarke. I am going to be teaching literacy and numeracy in Year 6. I have taught at Buckingham Primary for many years and I am really looking forward to being back in Year 6.
