NEWEST BRANCH OPENS IN BLACKPOOL AREA!

Last week saw the opening of the UK's newest branch in Blackpool and the Fylde. New Principal, Sarah Walton, visited a school in the village of Weeton to conduct a series of workshops to introduce the unique Helen O'Grady programme to the area. There was, of course, strict security surrounding the barracks including the armed guard Sarah had to encounter on the way in.
Once safely inside, though, there couldn't have been a warmer welcome from staff and students. Several teachers were even inspired to join in! Sarah taught all the children in the school in three age groups, from Year 1 through to Year 6 and a great time was had by all!
Sarah, a qualified and experienced school teacher, was awarded the Blackpool franchise after qualifying in the Remote Worker Awards last year. Training Manager, Margaret Darley, who was with
her for the launch said: "Sarah is a natural in the classroom. She delivers the programme with boundless energy and enthusiasm, constantly aware of the children's needs and capabilities. Her lessons are great fun and her aims are very clear - to develop her students' confidence and skill in verbal communication. She has the makings of a great Principal!"
Classes are now enrolling in Blackpool, Lytham St. Annes and Singleton. For more information contact Sarah direct on 01772 750624 or email blackpool@helenogrady.co.uk
