Meet The Teachers

I love working at Templestowe Valley because the entire school community is so friendly. My favourite part about my job is seeing my students’ faces light up when they understand a new topic. Outside of school I love to go for walks and spend time with family and friends.

I love working at Templestowe Valley because of the close knit community and the fun I have at work each day. I love incorporating technology where I can and supporting students to be real-life problem solvers. When I’m not at school, I’m usually out for a coffee with girlfriends and family.

I am passionate about all things Year 6. Student Leadership, Graduation (also known as Valleydictory here) and any other opportunity to challenge and extend our learners as they make the exciting transition into secondary school. I love that Templestowe Valley fosters the growth and development of its Year 6 students.

I love watching student’s develop a growth mindset. Over a year students can achieve so much and become so confident in their own abilities. This brings a big smile to my face.
I love reading, baking and shopping.

I love being a teacher as I get to help support students learn, grow and gain new skills. In my spare time I enjoy keeping fit and spending time with my family and friends.

I enjoy working with the wonderful students and community at TVPS. I love making the classroom a fun place and building positive, warm and nurturing relationships with my students. Outside of school I enjoy travelling, spending time with friends and family, going to the beach, roller skating and dancing.

Hi, I’m Maria.
I am passionate about teaching and love working with children. I enjoy watching them grow and develop a love for learning in my classroom.
In my free time I love to read.

I love the real sense of
community at TVPS. The students, families and staff have incredible relationships that you just don’t get at every school. I have two young children who I adore. I look forward to school holidays and going on our annual family trip to FNQ.

I feel extremely lucky to work alongside the wonderful students, staff and parents of TVPS. My classroom promotes a positive and supportive environment where children are encouraged to take risks and develop a lifelong love of learning.

When I’m not at school, I love spending time with family and friends.

I have been at TVPS since 2003 and  have held numerous roles, including LOTE (Italian) teacher, Maths Specialist and classroom teacher.
I really enjoy the challenge of helping each student achieve their maximum potential.
Away from school I like to active, following many sports, particularly AFL and the mighty Blues!

I have been at TVPS since 1998. I love coming to school every day. The biggest privilege I have as a teacher is that I get to teach a new group of students with vibrant personalities, experiences, and ideas. I love spending time with my family and barracking for Collingwood.

Hi, I’m Penny. I love reading stories with my class and learning about the world we live in.
When I’m not teaching, I like to walk with my puppy and spend time outside with my family.

I have been teaching at TVPS since 2001. I really enjoy working with the children and helping them grow and develop. I love to spend time with my family and my two dogs and support the Richmond Football Club.

I love teaching reading and writing and having lots of fun with my class. When I am not teaching, I love being outdoors with my family, camping and playing sport.

I have had the joy of being at TVPS since 1987. It has been a pleasure to work with such dedicated and caring teachers.
The beautiful families and children make TVPS the wonderful place it is.
When I am not at school I love spending time with my family.

I am passionate about teaching and learning and thoroughly enjoy working alongside our keen and dedicated teachers to continually develop their pedagogy and in turn improve student learning outcomes. Our T.V.P.S. students are highly enthusiastic and motivated to learn which makes every day a rewarding experience!

As part of the Year 5 team, I love working with students to develop student voice and agency. When I am not at school I like to spend time with my own family.

Hi, I’m Julie. I love working with my students and building a cohesive, caring classroom.

It’s wonderful to watch my students embrace their learning, take risks and more importantly, be free to be who they are.

In my free time I love to play my drums and keep fit.

I love teaching and supporting students, and seeing the spark in their eyes when they finally ‘get it’. I especially enjoy teaching maths and playing games to develop students’ understanding.

In my free time, I love going out with friends, reading and baking sweet treats!

My name is Hayley (Miss Wilson) and I am new to TVPS. I love the welcoming atmosphere and meeting all the members of our school. I am from Canberra originally and have only been in Melbourne for the past three years. I graduated from Monash University with a Bachelor of Primary/ Secondary Teaching and a Bachelor of Arts in ancient history and Italian. My hobbies include crocheting and continuously growing my already extensive collection of indoor plants. When teaching, I believe in building a strong report with both the student and their families. Getting to know students allows me to understand who they are as a person and how they learn. I love teaching because the learning never stops, both for me and my students.

I love the inclusive community feel Templestowe Valley has created and seeing my students experience success, of all forms, in the classroom.

I spend my spare time cooking or eating out and barracking hard for the mighty Western Bulldogs.

I love teaching Performing Arts at TVPS. Seeing the students thrive as they learn and improve their understanding of the three main elements – Music, Dance and Drama is so rewarding.  
Outside of work, I do music theatre and love to go to the beach!
