Jade has recently joined us as a Hospitality Assistant. She will mostly be working over the weekend.

“Hi my name is Jade and as well as enjoying working at Valerie Manor, I am also a member of the St John’s ambulance, which is an experience I love and enjoy.

I have a dog and a cat at home who I help look after, especially my cat Binka. I love going for long walks along the river with my dog on a summers evening.

I am going to start my college course for childcare in September, which I am excited to do. I then hope to go to Canterbury Christchurch University to study teaching. I have nearly always wanted to teach young children so I hope to get the grades at college so I can study it.

Another passion is Astro-Physics – I love looking at the night sky and witnessing new constellations I haven’t seen before. I also love reading, knitting, singing, dancing and learning Japanese.”
