Summary

I am a responsible and versatile person who has spent many hours educating, inspiring, protecting and encouraging children. My strengths are communication, empathy and patience and as I already know some of the educators at Andre Piolat, due to my regular volunteer activities at the school, I feel I will fit in well with the team. As a substitute Educational Assistant or lunch time Monitor at Andre Piolat I will use the best of my abilities to contribute to a positive and safe environment.
