My name is Norman Gill, I was born and bred in Sheffield and I now live in Dronfield with my wife Molly. 

Both Molly and I have worked in the Sheffield Education Authority, in various settings and various roles, for over 40 years! 

My final job was the role of the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Officer for Sheffield, and it was through working with Seven Hills School Students and Staff that I was asked to become a School Governor and I am still here after seven years; now as the proud Chair of Governors at our amazing School. 

Most people know that I am passionate about Alpine Skiing, Molly tells me it is an obsession, and I am in The Alps as much as possible in the ski season. 

I am also very passionate about the work we Governors do in maintaining a happy and positive learning environment; this is achieved through the wonderful, caring and skilled approach of every member of the Staff teams and of the enthusiasm of each Student.

I hope that, as a School Governor, I can continue to play a part in ensuring that this continues.

Hi, my name is Elaine Everett I am one of the headteachers and I look after the students in the lower school.  It’s a privilege to work at Seven Hills and our focus is always on the care, safety and education of our wonderful students.  The governors pay an immense role in supporting the work of the school and provide a valued additional perspective on life at Seven Hills and the experience for staff and students.  I am proud to be part of the Seven Hills community and lucky to be surrounded by such a kind, dedicated, hardworking team.

In 2017 I  retired from full time teaching. I was a teacher of the deaf in Sheffield for 15 years and before that taught in Nottinghamshire for 20 years.  I have a strong interest in the outdoors and try to stay fit and active by walking, cycling and climbing. I love to meet up with family and friends and to travel. I am really enjoying being a governor and am very proud to be part of such a welcoming and caring community.

My name is Hannah Dulieu. Thankyou for welcoming me to your school!

My name is Dawn Wood. I am extremely proud to have been associated with this amazing school for over 20 years and I have had the opportunity to work alongside many wonderful staff, students and families.

I strongly believe that Seven Hills School provides an excellent education, which enables all students to enjoy school, achieve their full potential and have the best opportunities to succeed whilst growing into responsible and caring individuals, whatever their individual circumstances. I have been a foster carer, and a governor, for over 10 years and I am passionate about supporting and making a difference to the lives of the students.

I work three days a week as a P.E teacher for Links School Sport Partnership, within the cluster of ‘Special’ Schools in Sheffield, and one day as the Disability Officer for Sheffield International Venues. Both roles enable me to improve, engage and involve disabled people in sporting opportunities which I find to be most rewarding and fulfilling for all.

I am a parent governor, mum to Joe who is in his 4^th year at Seven Hills.  I work full time as a Civil Servant, and in my spare time I love to cycle with my family and walk our dog.  I am an active member of several parent led support groups, including the Sheffield Down Syndrome Support Group, Cycle Happy (a learning disabled cycling group) and the Family Support Group, which organises swimming, trampolining and Tae Kwando sessions for young people with learning disabilities.
