Year of Aspiration
Catherine Conyard visited our school to lead us on a journey through Ancient Greece. Catherine used to be a teacher and has been running historical workshops for over 10 years. We interviewed her to see how she got to this point in her career. We asked the following questions ...
What do you enjoy about your job?
"I love history and working with children. I am in a different school each day and on average, work in 150 schools a year. Every day is different and I never know what challenges I will face. I love working for myself as it gives me lots of opportunity to develop new skills."
Why did you decide to do this work?
"I started teaching around 23 years ago but had to stop when I had children. As my children got older, I started these workshops and have been running them for many years. I love my job."
How do you develop the knowledge/skills to complete the workshops?
"I do a lot of research and can create a new workshop in 2-3 weeks. I use books, tv and the internet to help research new topics - I love to learn! Some of the reconstructed artefacts I use can take a bit of time to find or build (not always by me) but they are essential so children can imagine what life was like in those times."
