Governors

Chair of Governors' Welcome

Hello, my name is Yvonne Frost and it is my absolute pleasure to be the chair of the Governing Board for Ewanrigg Junior School. I started my Ewanrigg Junior School journey as a small, scared and impressionable Year 3, I loved the time I spent at Ewanrigg Junior School as a pupil leaving Year 6 happy and confident.

Fast forward just a ‘few’ years and I find myself looking for a junior school for my son. We attended an open day where we looked around the school and met the teachers. Walking through the doors felt like I had returned home! With their vision of ‘Be All You Can Be’ and their mission to ensure that each child will have the opportunity to ‘Look, Listen, Learn and Laugh’ I knew it was the place for my children. I soon become a member of the Parent Teachers Association and then Governing Board.

I am Vice Chair on two committees with the Board and most recently co-chair of the Board.

My two boys have now left Ewanrigg Junior School but my heart remains there. I believe in everything the school stands for within the community and how the school endeavours to provide children with the best of education within a calming, safe environment in which they can “Be all they can be!"

Governors play a pivotal role in the life of the school through strategic direction, agreeing policies and ensuring a high quality education for your child. Governors would welcome your views whether they are positive or negative.
