Apple Trees Team

Hi, I’m Jane Snow. I have loved working at Apple Trees Club since 2015, and been involved with Curry Rivel School for many years, since my teenage son was a baby! I worked in the nursery for six years, at the same time I served in many roles on the PTA including as Secretary and later Chair. I also worked with the school-aged children at lunchtimes and with many of the younger ones as a volunteer reader. I hold an NVQ Level 3 in Children’s Care, Learning & Development, and I’m qualified in Somerset Total Communication (enabling children with speech delay and communication difficulties to be understood and included). I have experience of working with children with Special Educational Needs. I’m passionate about the inclusion of all children, regardless of barriers, in play-based activities to encourage learning, development and fun!

Hello,my name is Paula. My husband Wayne, our dog Bryn and I moved to Curry Rivel from our home town of Plymouth in July 2019. My background is working in the care profession having worked in palliative care for the past 12 years. I’m very excited to begin this new venture with the Apple Trees team.

My name is Emma Myhill I have lived with my family in Curry Rivel for over 20 years. I am a qualified Nursery nurse and LSA and I am employed as a TA at Curry Rivel Primary school. I believe that every child should be given support and opportunities in the indoor and outdoor environments to reach their full potential as an individual.
