Clarity Independent School
"Refreshed learning that changes lives."
Debbie Hanson
Head Teacher
In my spare time, I love to walk my dog, PJ in the countryside. He is a golden cocker spaniel, and very mischievous! I have to wear trainers to keep up with him; however, this is good, because he keeps me fit! The only thing is, that he loves to roll and swim around in deep mud and get filthy, so he often comes out as a dark brown / black dog muddy dog with only one clean golden orange tuft of hair on the top of his head! He hates having a bath so this usually involves him being chased round the garden with a hose pipe!

I have a very busy life outside of school. I like to spend lots of quality time with my family and walking my dog, Guinness. I also have a great love of music: listening to music, playing music and going to live music events, as well as singing with a band and also a choir (performing quite recently on BBC radio and BBC tv).

In my spare time I love to spend time with family, there is nothing I like more than to be surrounded by the people I love, feeding them either roast dinners or barbeques when I can.
I also like to read books, especially in the summer when I can do this outdoors. I love to be in the garden but not really into gardening other than growing vegetables.
Living so close to the sea you will often find me on a nice sunny day taking a long walk along the promenade, usually in a hunt for a nice ice-cream.

There is nothing I like better than being outside surrounded by nature, going for long walks with my family and my dog Jasper in the woods or along the seafront. I like all sports and I coach my daughters football team.

In my spare time I enjoy walking my dog, Luna. This is us splashing around in the river and playing hide and seek. We also love playing ball at the beach. In this picture, we lots the ball in the water so I had to roll my jeans up and get in! Oh well...
I didn't always used to be a cleaner. I used to care for people in their homes, helping them to get washed and dressed and into bed at night.
