Hi, my name is Linda Taylor and I am a Montessori teacher in Happy Days. I have a Diploma with a Distinction from Portobello College in Montessori teaching. I received this in 2007 and have been working in Happy Days since then.

Some of my other qualifications include a diploma in Interior Design, manual handling certificate and a Paediatric first aid certificate. Before I studied Montessori I was a stay at home mam with my two children. I find this experience helps me in my role as a teacher today.

From 1989 to 1995 I worked as an artist for an animation studio called Sullivan Bluth. They produced feature films such as All Dogs go to Heaven 1&2, Tumbelina, Pebbel & the Penguin and Space Jam. It was a fun multicultural vibrant place to work.

Apart from all the arts and crafts we do during the school year I love to sketch in my free time and enjoy an odd book. During the summer our family heads to Wexford in anticipation of a heat wave. Hopefully it will happen this year!
