Charmeyne Cheryl Karina Mccollin Country of Origin: United Kingdom Charmeyne is a former Cricket journalist who now uses her passion for words in the classroom settings.

Charmeyne's strength in the classroom stems from her extensive knowledge of each child, a trait that has served her well in pastoral leadership roles.

In her spare time, she enjoys reading, playing word games, and occasionally dusting off her clarinet and playing a little tune. |
