Poppy Pain

I am a responsible and enthusiastic Year 11 student currently studying for my GCSEs, with consistently high predicted grades specifically in the humanities and creative arts. For the past two years, I have volunteered with children within the age of 3-7 years old, developing strong communication patience and teamwork skills. I also completed work experience as a teaching assistant at a junior school with a Year 4 class, where I supported staff and engaged with young pupils in a friendly, positive and professional manner.

I have a genuine passion for reading, literature and storytelling, making me particularly interested in working in a children's book shop. My interests in drama and graphic design have helped me develop creativity, confidence and the ability to connect with a variety of different audiences. I am eager to bring my enthusiasm, strong work ethic and love of books to a customer-focused role where I can help create an enjoyable experience for children and families, sharing my love of books with the local community.
