For this weeks blog I thought I would give you a bit of insight into who I am, what I love, and my journey with Schools Plus.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_382\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.schoolsplus.co.uk\/arkjohnkeats\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2016\/08\/Lovedale-Harrison.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-382\" class=\" wp-image-382\" src=\"http:\/\/www.schoolsplus.co.uk\/arkjohnkeats\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2016\/08\/Lovedale-Harrison.jpg\" alt=\"I promise, I smile a lot more in real life!\" width=\"300\" height=\"201\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.schoolsplus.co.uk\/arkjohnkeats\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2016\/08\/Lovedale-Harrison.jpg 592w, http:\/\/www.schoolsplus.co.uk\/arkjohnkeats\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2016\/08\/Lovedale-Harrison-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-382\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">I promise, I smile a lot more in real life!<\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I have\u00a0two passions and they are Music &amp; Events! And my life pretty much revolves around these two passions.\u00a0I\u00a0have an eclectic taste in music but I absolutely love 70\/80&#8217;s Soul and Gospel Music. And of course my favourite type of Event to be involved in is Music Events!\u00a0In my free time I enjoy catching up with friends &amp; family, working with young people at my local Church, attending Music events,\u00a0and on the rare occasions that I get to watch TV, I&#8217;m usually watching Crime Dramas, The Food Network or Big Bang Theory re-runs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I am one of those very lucky people who has managed to actually work in the fields that I am interested in, which has helped work to occasionally feel more like play. Throughout my career I have juggled positions in both Music &amp; Events, often combing the two. Through my work as an Events Manager I have organised everything from Weddings &amp; Bridal Showers\u00a0to Conferences &amp; Concerts. The bulk of my work in Music has been as a Choir Director\/Manager and this has enabled me to have many exciting opportunities including performances on \u00a0XFactor, Britain&#8217;s Got Talent and at the BBC Proms at The Royal Albert Hall. \u00a0I also previously worked as a Choir Instructor in Primary Schools in South West London before making the transition to a full time Venue Manager.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">I started out with Schools Plus in 2014 as a Venue Host and became Venue Supervisor a few months later. Through the encouragement of my Manager and colleagues I decided to apply for a Venue Manager positionm and after an intense interview I got the job! I currently manage three awesome sites, Ark John Keats Academy in Enfield, King Harold Academy in Waltham Abbey &amp; The Archer Academy in East Finchley. \u00a0I have already learnt so much since becoming Venue Manager which has made me an even better Events professional. I look forward to learning and growing much more in Schools Plus.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Lovedale \u00a0~ \u00a0Your Venue Manager<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Just one more thing&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>Keep up to date with the latest ARK John Keats venue information by connecting with us on social media:<\/p>\n<p>Follow us on Twitter: @sp_arkjohnkeats<br \/>\nJoin us on Facebook: Schools Plus at Ark John Keats Academy<br \/>\nIf you\u2019re interested in hiring out our spaces or would like some more information continuing browsing our website or contact Venue Manager Lovedale on 07983 533501 or email lovedale.harrison@schoolsplus.co.uk<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Meet The Manger Hi there!
