My name is Jenna Turner and I have been working at Biraban Public school since the beginning of 2022. I did my very first casual teaching day at Biraban and I’ve stayed here ever since.
I grew up in Tea Gardens and in 2011 I moved to Sydney to complete a traineeship in a preschool, where I obtained a Certificate III in Children’s Services.
From 2012-2021 I worked full time in Early Childhood Education. During that time, I studied part time at the University of Newcastle, and after a long 6 years I finally graduated with a Bachelor of Teaching (Early Childhood & Primary).
In 2017 I had my beautiful baby boy Louie-J and in 2021 I married my husband, Michael.
I have always loved working with children in early childhood and I have developed the same passion working with primary school aged children. I believe in inclusive education, respect, trust and building reciprocal relationships with children and their families.
Outside of school, I enjoy being with my family and friends, going to the park, beach, pool, movies, having fires and toasting marshmallows.
I am looking forward to watching all the children at Biraban Public school learn, develop, and reach their personal best in all aspects of education.
