Governors

My first memories of really enjoying reading are from when I was about 8 years old and I discovered the 'Fighting Fantasy' books which were a series of stories where you got to decide what happened next by turning to different pages when you made a decision. You also got to fight monsters so it was utterly brilliant! Nowadays I read every single day and love a mixture of fiction and non-fiction, written stories and graphic novels. My favourite author has always been Stephen King who used to write scary stories but in recent years has changed to writing about lots of different subjects. I love how he makes you feel that you have entered a new world for a while and are really invested in new characters.

Hi I’m Gemma. I joined as a governor in September 2019.

My two children attend Luxulyan school and I am excited to be part of the school both as a parent and a governor.

I worked for a local bank so I have an interest in the finance aspect of Luxulyan school. I hope my knowledge and experience in finance will assist me in this role. I now work as a Teaching Assistant in the school.

I am also the chairperson for Luxulyan preschool so I am very keen to continue and keep the strong relationship and connection between the preschool and school.

I love to read and have always read to my children. Jacqueline Wilson and the Mr Men/Little Miss series are firm favourites at home.

Outside of work my family and I love to go camping and out on our kayak.
