About Me

Bristol, United Kingdom
I am Head of English at Fairfield High School and love working here! This is my sixth year at Fairfield and everyday continues to consolidate my opinion that we teach some of the best students in Bristol. I live locally, love cycling, cats, reading and painting. If I wasn't an English teacher in Bristol, I wouldn't mind living in Stockholm, Sweden and being an interior designer. I am also movie mad and watch at least 5 films a week. For the last three years I worked in partnership with the Watershed and lead many creative media projects for Fairfield (check out my other blog at www.mswredenfors.net).

Students go Electric at the Watershed!

The preparation for Electric December 2010 is in full swing with over 50 students involved with the Watershed assignment, this year is going to be huge! Yes, the sheer number of students involved this year does bring some challenges but there is an absolute flurry of creativity in the BTEC classes this year. Starting with only 8 students last year, Electric December is now involving students from Fairfield, Henbury and Bridge Learning Campus.

Before half term I brought my students down to the Watershed to participate in an all day photography marathon that covered themes and techniques such as portraiture and seeing the world differently. The results were some fantastic and very electric images. These are soon to be starring on www.electricdecember.org - here is a sneak peek!
