Rebecca Hamburger

I am Chair of Governors for Sundridge & Brasted Primary School. Previous to that, I had a role on the Governing Body and was a Community Governor. My daughter was at the school for seven years from Reception through to Year 6 and was extremely happy there. I also have responsibility for mathematics which means I monitor the learning and teaching across the school. In my other life I work as an Independent Educational Consultant and enjoy volunteering and helping in the school.

Kirsty Oliver

I have been involved with the school as a Governor since 2003 and became Vice Chair of the Governing Body in 2013. I am a Chartered Accountant, employed by a London firm and work mostly from home. I have lived in Sundridge since 1999. I have three children.　

The Reverend Linda Green
I have been an ordained minister in the Church of England since 1987, working initially in two urban parishes followed by many years as a hospital chaplain before returning to parish ministry in 2006 at Crockenhill in Kent. At that time I became involved in the village school which I found a real joy and inspiration. I became Rector of St Martin's Church in Brasted in 2010 and as such I am an ex-officio Governor of Sundridge and Brasted School. It is part of my role as a governor to work with the school to draw out its Christian qualities. These qualities are reflected in the school’s values; they are values that all can subscribe to with or without a faith background, in school and out of school. The values we strive for provide a bedrock for a nurturing and supportive environment for everyone, staff and pupils. They aim to make living and learning enjoyable and inspiring, enabling your child to grow into a confident, happy and valued member of society who also values him or her self.

Melvin Debono

I have been a parent at the school since 2016, when my son started in reception, and have seen at first hand the significance of the strong foundation gained at Sundridge & Brasted in supporting pupils as they move on throughout each year, and eventually onto secondary school.  I am enjoying the role a great deal and love working with the other governors and staff to ensure that the school goes from strength to strength. My desire to be part of the school's governing body drives from a genuine interest in school improvement at all levels, and a deep rooted belief in the importance of education for all.  I hope that some of my skills will be useful to support the staff & governors as they continue to develop what is already an exceptional school.

Charles Brand

Having watched my own son benefit from a tremendous education at Sundridge and Brasted from Reception to Year 6, I decided to seek to become a Governor in 2018. My professional background is in financial services, having risen to Director level in a number of institutions in a career spanning some 35 years. As a parent, I have seen the school nurture children with the full range of abilities and now want to ensure that those high standards are maintained for the benefit of future generations. I look forward to meeting as many parents and staff as I can, in the coming years.　

Louise McCabe-Arnold

I have been a governor at Sundridge and Brasted since the start of 2019. I have lovely memories of the school as it is where I undertook work experience as a 16 year old many, many years ago. It stood me in good stead as I am now a Deputy Head of a local school. I am looking forward to getting to know the children, staff and parents better over the coming months.

Alastair Horsford

I became a governor at Sundridge & Brasted at the start of the 2019/20 academic year. I was keen to take on a governor role because I believe that the expertise I have gathered as a teacher, Head of Department and now a Deputy Head teacher in the teaching profession over the past 12 years can be of great benefit to the school community. I am also looking forward to seeing a different side of the education system from what I have been used to and also to being an important part of the decision making processes, helping this fantastic school continue to thrive and progress.

Nicola Williamson

I was previously a staff governor at my school where I have been Deputy Head since 2008 and the SENCO since 2012. I have always been actively involved in school life. When my children were at primary school I was a member of the PTA and helped out with reading and intervention groups.

Sundridge & Brasted is a very different school from where I work, which is a 3 form entry infant and junior school. When my daughter became a teacher at Sundridge & Brasted I came in to help her set up her classroom and developed a genuine interest in the school. I enjoy the role of governor a great deal and love working with other governors and staff to ensure that the school goes from strength to strength. My belief in the importance of quality education for all children is always at the heart of any decisions I make.

I hope that some of my skills will be useful to support the staff and governors as they continue to develop what is already an exceptional school.

Sally Bawn

I have been a teacher for most of my career, both at the primary and secondary level.  My last role was as Key Stage 2 Team Leader and member of the SLT.  We are a Christian family and I feel that my experience as a teacher and leader in a school can contribute to Sundridge and Brasted.  I have two daughters who have just finished university.  We are looking forward to our new life in Sevenoaks and I look forward to being a part of Sundridge and Brasted School.
