Motivational Monday - Andrea Connor (Staff)

3 May 2023
Getting to Know...

Our first member of staff is Receptionist, Andrea Connor.

When did you arrive in Mayfield and where did you come from?

I started my adventure with Mayfield in October 2007 after working 13 years at a firm of accountants in Eastbourne – a job I loved too. I moved to live in Mayfield and the rest just happened.

Your greatest influence growing up?

Both my parents worked in the Media – My father being a Picture Editor (Newspapers) for as long as I can remember and my mother as a Paste Up Artist (Graphic Design) and Classified Ads Lead. Being in this industry – You were always up to date with the latest news!!!! That’s me now in my position – I like to know everything!!!

Best memory of Mayfield so far?

My time at Mayfield continues to be memorable – even this week taking a call from a lady asking ‘Is the receptionist position still available at Mayfield’ that she had apparently seen on Indeed on Tuesday!!! I promptly sought Kelly!

The best quote in the signing out book for lateness: ‘The gravitational pull of the duvet would not allow me to leave my bed’ ….. (Community Prefect 2013 -14) – you know who you are!!!!

Why do you think Mayfield is so special?

Mayfield is a very unique place to work. My years have been extremely happy here …….. everyday is different but most of all it’s about the people. The staff, parents and girls who I have got to know and not to mention the lovely surprise when an old girl walks back through those doors!!

Advice you’d give your younger self?

Quote to my younger self – Live life happy!
