Welcome and Meet Our Team

Hello and Welcome to team Year 2/3. I am Mrs Fisher and am the full-time class teacher. I am responsible for History and RE in the school and have worked in Chapelfield for most of my career. When I was part time I had the opportunity to work in many different schools in Bury and the surrounding areas and am delighted to be back in Chapelfield full time.  Working within our team in Mrs Barlow, our full-time Teaching Assistant. Mrs Barlow is also our lunchtime supervisor and will teach the class during my weekly marking time. We currently have Mrs Williams supporting us in the mornings (Monday Tuesday and Wednesday) and Mrs Simms in the mornings (Thursday and Friday). We love celebrating work that children have done at home and any out of school achievements. We are very excited to be working with your children this year and have lots to look forward to. We aim that children will grow in confidence, resilience and enjoy learning!
