Über diesen Titel
We launch Series 2 of Grovian Voices with none other than Donna Shoesmith-Evans (st92-25), who only just retired this July after an incredible 33-year career at The Grove. From her first steps into the school for a job interview to a heartfelt farewell this summer, Donna shares her rich, warm and often hilarious reflections on life at The Grove.
Having worn many hats - History teacher, boarding staff, PE and eventually head of teacher training - Donna's journey is deeply rooted in The Grove's fabric. She married in the school chapel, her son James (OG 05–20) was christened and schooled from Ashdown, Brontë House and through The Grove. Donna forged lifelong friendships with colleagues including Tony Zammit and David Wood.
We also learn about:
- The infamous Grease staff performance night!
- Her alter ego as “DJ Donna” on Radio Calderdale
- Her proudest achievements and the challenges of shaping young minds
- What she’s planning in retirement (yes, tennis is involved)
- And of course, her take on what truly makes her happy and the best advice she’s ever received.
Plus, she answers the mystery question left by last season’s closer, current staff member Kevin Eaglestone (st01-) ("What’s your superpower?"), and leaves one for the next guest in line.
And don’t miss the quickfire round at the end (with new questions for Series 2!) - Donna didn’t get to prepare for it, and that’s half the fun!
Your Host: Eve Corry, Development Officer at Woodhouse Grove (st24-)
