MEET THE TEAM
This is the 'Flo-Jo' Team.
Welcome to the Flo Jo class. I am Mr Johnson the class teacher and our teaching assistant is Mrs Kocan. This will be my 8th year at Longmoor Primary School. In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my wife Sarah and my boys Will and Tristan who are 8 and 6 years old. I love football and support Tottenham Hotspur. I am a very keen runner and run for my local club.
I am very excited about being a part of the early years team. We are going to have a great year.
Any questions please feel free to use Dojo to contact me.

WHISPER - Anonymous Reporting Tool
Sometimes it is really hard to tell an adult if you feel like you are being bullied. That is why we have subscribed to WHISPER. It is an anonymous reporting tool which allows you or your child to report any incidents of bullying and cyber bullying in confidence.
Click on the web link below to fill in a report. It will then be emailed to Miss Hughes (Online Safety Coordinator). Messages are checked as often as possible. In order to resolve issues effectively and promptly, please include your name. This will be kept in the strictest of confidence.
If you have any concerns or worries about your child regarding online safety and would like further advice, please contact Miss Hughes or Mr Lyons, the school's online safety co-ordinators or speak to Mrs Dainty, Headteacher.
