Laura Brockhurst
Headteacher
Role at school: I am the Headteacher at Walberton and Binsted C.E. Primary School. I am very lucky and proud of my role and, of course, our school. I get to plan lots of exciting events, lead the staff forwards in many new curriculum areas and enjoy watching all our children blossom and progress.
Likes: I especially like spending precious time with my family, enjoy a good catch up evening with close friends and a nice meal. I also enjoy a home with pets in, Tigger and Smudge, my cats, are always a joy to watch and never fail to make me laugh with their antics!
Hobbies: Sailing, getting stuck into our garden at home (where there are never ending jobs needing tending to, but seeing the benefits of hard work paying off!), and cycling with my husband and two children.
