Staff Spot! Mrs Watts-Deputy Head

Each week, we will be introducing a member of staff so you can get to know who people are in school if you are unsure. First up…Mrs Watts!

Name Mrs Watts
Role in school and how long you have worked here? I am the Deputy Head at St George’s.

I have worked here for 32 years. I started in 1992 as a newly qualified teacher.

What do you love about working at St George’s?

 

 

 

 

Oooohhh… there are so many things!

I love being part of such a positive team. I love the children that come here – they are amazing! I love how supportive our families are and how we all work hard together.

Children singing at St George’s is something that always makes me emotional – they do it so well.

Can you tell us about a memory from when you were at school?

 

 

 

When I was at primary school, my best friend Lorna and I used to hide under the tables in the corridor and try to guess who was walking by their feet!

I used to be good at running so I loved sports day. I remember my Grandma cheering me on and her being so pleased when I won a race.

What are your hobbies?

 

 

 

 

 

I spend a lot of time watching football. I am a season ticket holder with Shrewsbury Town Football Club. (sometimes I wish I supported a team which wins more regularly!)

I love spending time with my friends and my family and walking my dogs Peggy and Dougie.

What’s your favourite biscuit? Tricky… I think probably my favourite is a chocolate digestive.
If you could go on holiday to anywhere in the world, where would you go? I would love to go to Brazil. I really like learning about wildlife so I would love to see the Amazon river and rainforest and see, first hand some of the animals and plants that live there.
