Bonnie Griffiths

Pre-School Manager and Executive Director

My role and responsibilities include providing safe, high quality education and care for Pre-School children. I lead and manage staff on a day-to-day basis. 

Jess Allen

Office Manager and Executive Director 

My roles and responsibilities are running every aspect of the office. 

Mark Griffiths

Board Member

It is my role as Board Member to hold the Directors of the Company to Account and ensure that they fully discharge their legal and financial responsibilities.  I work closely with Jess to ensure that the Company remains financially stable. 

My experience of running my own business for 14 years has provided me with a good deal of knowledge that enables me to offer advice and help when needed.

I also provide support to Chatterbox in relation to IT services in use daily by the team.

James Consterdine

Board Member and Non-Executive Director 

I grew up in Romsey and currently work as a Senior IT Infrastructure Engineer for University of Southampton. I got involved in Chatterbox through volunteering as part of my (in progress) application to become an adopter. I was immediately impressed with the ethos of the Pre-School, and the welcome I got from both the children and the staff was reflective of the lovely atmosphere.

 I am delighted to be getting more involved by joining the Chatterbox board and helping in any way I can.

Michael Olatoye

Board Member and Non-Executive Director 

I have taught at Primary, Secondary and Tertiary levels in three countries, and have also worked on project to improve education systems in developing countries (working with Ministries for Education).

Outside of Education, I have experience Consulting for Organisations in the private and charity sectors, helping them to introduce new products and services as well as to improve their processes and systems.

I am delighted to be able to offer my skills and experience to help Chatterbox continue providing outstanding Pre-School education to its children.
