We thought it would be nice for our pupils and parents to get to know our senior team in the prep school a little better, this week we had a chat with Mrs Penny and Mr Chislett: First we spoke to Mrs Penny: How long have you worked at Queen ’ s? I have worked at Queens since September - so for just over 6 weeks. What ’ s the most exciting part of your job? That no day is the same! I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know the wonderful children across the Prep School. Teaching the children in year one, running cookery and catchball clubs also leading Pre - Prep assemblies are certainly highlights of my week. What ’ s the best place you ’ ve travelled to? I love to travel and have visited some beautiful countries. New Zealand is certainly one of my favourites as the picturesque landscape is breathtaking and I was able to partake in some extreme sports like skydiving. What kind of music do you like? Pop music is my guilty pleasure! What is your favourite animal? Elephants are my favourite animal. I was lucky enough to see a number of herds when on safari in Sri Lanka. Do you have any pets? Sadly, I don't. Although I regularly dog sit for my dad who has a beautiful Weimeraner named Purdy. Are you a coffee or tea person? Coffee is my drink of preference. What ’ s your favourite food?
