Welcome

Hello, my name is Mrs Shimmin and I teach in Year 3. I have been lucky enough to teach at Northway since 2007 and love being a part of the Lower Junior team. I will be teaching in Year 3 on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I have taught in other year groups as well but being able to support children with the transition from infants to juniors is something I thoroughly enjoy

Hello, my name is Mrs Collins and I teach in Year 3 alongside Mrs Shimmin on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. I joined Northway back in 2010 and have taught across all of KS2. I’m responsible for Rights Respecting Schools at Northway and I was really proud when we achieved our Gold Award a few years ago – the highest level of award!

We're really looking forward to welcoming you back in September. When coming into school, remember to walk down the pedestrian path, cross at the zebra crossing and wave goodbye as you walk down to path and onto the Junior playground. Here is a short video that will help you with how to walk into school.
