Meet our 1st and 2nd Class Teacher - Mr. Anderson

​​
Picture
My name is David Butler Anderson, and I am the First- and Second-Class teacher here at St. Peter’s National School. I live in Dublin and recently graduated from the Church of Ireland Centre in DCU with a degree in Primary School Teaching, where I specialised in Multigrade Teaching.

 I have a great love for music. I play the tin whistle and I am learning the banjo, guitar and I can’t wait to share my love of music with the children. I believe learning should be fun, creative, and hands-on. I especially enjoy doing science experiments and encouraging curiosity and exploration in the classroom. I’m passionate about helping every child grow in confidence, kindness, and enthusiasm for learning. Gaeilge songs and traditional games play a big part in my teaching, as I find they bring great joy to the classroom and help build a strong sense of culture and community.
​
​​I am the newest member of the St Peter’s family. I feel very lucky to be part of St. Peter’s, a wonderful, welcoming school with a strong sense of community and a fantastic team of teachers and pupils. I’m really looking forward to an exciting year of music, laughter, and learning in such a great school!

What do our 1st and 2nd Class students think of St. Peter's National School?

Picture
"I have 4 reasons why I love St. Peter’s - Playing with my friends, Aistear, i-pads and eating my treat on a Friday"
"My favourite thing about this school is having lunch with my friends in the classroom and making jokes"
Picture
"If you are a bit shy and you come here and meet all the other boys and girls in your classroom you get more used to the school and you can make new friends"
Picture
"My favourite time of the day is yard time when I get to see all my friends and play outside in the yard."
Stay up to date with our 1st and 2nd Class activities on our dedicated Class page.
