Kerryanne Cartwright
I am the Faculty Head of the very busy PE department at DBS. In our department we aim to foster a sense of enjoyment from sport, whilst providing our students with the skills that will enable them to participate in physical activities throughout their lives. I began teaching here in 2008 and have enjoyed every minute. It has been an absolute joy to watch the progress of all the students in our school, especially those who I have had the pleasure to teach from FS all the way up through secondary. I am heavily involved with the extra-curricular activities and I love taking the DBS teams to sports fixtures where I get to witness the skills, talents and competitiveness of our students. I adore the community feel surrounding DBS and its a pleasure getting to integrate with so many families and to see them grow and flourish. Best Moment In Teaching I think one of my funniest moments, was during a swimming lesson when a little boy in FS2 shouted at me from across the pool, mid-width, that he "was not a fish"! It was a challenge trying to explain to him that children can swim too, but I think he finally got the message by Year 6.
