Interview  with  Ms. Collins 

Ms. Collins is our Home School Liaison Officer. She works really hard between here and the secondary school. This is an interview we did with her:

How long are you Home School Liaison Officer?   Six and a half years.

We asked Ms. Collins how long she was working in Joeys and she said: Fifteen years.

What year was the the most exciting in Joeys? E.very year is exciting in Joeys

How many different rooms have you had as H.S.L .O.?  I was in Fanno’s office and in Ms. Goodwin’s room.

What was it like to share a room with Fanno? It was exciting ,busy and fun when he was in good form. It was not so good when he was giving out to the kids!

What has changed in the last fifteen years since you’ve been here? Over the past fifteen years, there have been many changes in Joey’s. Mr. Guider’s room and Ms. Walsh’s room was the original staff room. When I started, there were only six other teachers. Now there are nearly  thirty on staff. Fanno was a teaching Principal. Room 10 was a cloak room. There was no garden at all. The staff room now and room 9A weren’t even built. There were no bicycle racks. There was no net in the yard. All the windows in the whole school were old and the stage had horrible, brown velvet curtains!

As you can see lots of changes have taken place in Joey’s since then.

Watch this space for more Joey’s news!
