Welcome to Class 2B - Mr Matthew Brook
My name is Matt Brook and I have been teaching for 10 years. I had a few wonderful years at Tuggerah Public School before moving to the UK. I taught in London for 3 years before moving back to the beautiful Central Coast in 2017. I’ve been at TPS for 6 years since moving back and this is my first time with my own year 2 class. I’m looking forward to taking part in my own learning journey as the kids are on theirs.
I believe the best approach to education is a holistic one, where the teacher builds a rapport and gets to know the students as individuals. This foundation allows the teacher and student to work together academically, socially and emotionally.
In 2B we will foster a positive relationship between all students and staff to build an environment where students feel confident to step out of their comfort zone and take risks to develop their learning and expand their comfort zones.

Communication:
Although we still have Class Dojo it is used exclusively for our class reward system and points. For parent/teacher communication please use Sentral. Sentral this is checked each morning and afternoon. For any urgent messages (i.e. how your child is getting home), please call the school and the office will pass this message on to your child.
I look forward to getting to know your child and family over the course of the year. If you need to discuss anything please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
