Sian Bunclark
Sian has over 29 years experience working in Early Years at Peter Hills. Having worked with numerous families over the years, Sian now finds herself supporting the children of the first pupils she taught.
What is your educational background
I went to Blackheath High Girls Secondary School. I really enjoyed art and history. I managed to get a few O'levels as I wanted to become a paediatric nurse, but changed my mind halfway through the training and decided to become a nursery nurse, getting my NNEB. It wasn't until much later I did the Early Years foundation degree at Lewisham College, then went on to do my BA Hons Education at Southbank University.
What skills and talents do you bring to Peter Hills'
Having enjoyed art at school, I think and hope I share this with the children, encouraging them not to be afraid to 'have a go' and using various materials. Â
When you're not at school what do you enjoy doing
I love spending time with my grandchildren (when I can). I have continued with my love of art looking for new ideas for the children.

What is your educational background
I studied at Blackheath Bluecoats C of E School and left with VERY average grades (work hard at school kids!). I diligently set about undoing my misspent youth, reentering education and eventually retraining as a Psychodynamic Therapist. Â
What skills and talents do you bring to Peter Hills
I'm good at solving problems, an empowerer, a great listener, with a deep desire to help make a difference to the lives of others. I can help you with any worries you may have in relation to your child's education, behaviour and wellbeing. I am a great advocate for parents, I'm tenacious and dig deep and offer practical, and emotional support to help children and families reach their full potential. I will work with you in order to work through any barriers to getting your children to school on time and regularly! ÂChildren should be seen and not heard  Not on your nelly! My therapeutic core is always at the heart of what I do and I offer a safe space for children to explore their thoughts, feelings and experiences, no matter how big or small,  my door is always open
When you're not at school what do you enjoy doingI'm a real fan of music and festivals and given the time and opportunity I would spend most of my free time at one!
