Robyn McDowell | Classroom Release Teacher (CRT)

Emma Thorpe —

I have been part of the Lincoln Primary Team for 17 years now.  Although I was born and trained in Christchurch, my teaching has taken me many places both in NZ and Canada, teaching in both primary and intermediate schools.  I have a passion for teaching  and  the outdoors. I take my role in overseeing the school’s Education Outside the Classroom (EOTC) programmes as a privilege. When I’m not at school I’m off biking, walking, visiting the beach, reading or catching up with my family - especially all my gorgeous grandchildren. Although I have spent most of my time teaching in the Intermediate hub, this yearI will continue to work across the whole school as part of the Classroom Release Teaching team.  I just love this role and feel very privileged to be asked to do it again. It is a treat to work in a different space every day and to get to know so many of the LPS students.
