Congratulations Miss Joannou!
Miss Joannou is always kind and supportive and makes lessons fun. She also talks to me outside lessons and helps with any concerns I have about anything. She also made Matilda so much fun and makes dance a really enjoyable subject. Dance is one of my favourite subjects as well so it’s nice to have subjects you enjoy that teachers are so passionate about and have good relationships with too because it really helps you like them even better and have a good understanding of them too.
