Hi, I’m Daisy Turnbull. I am a teacher, and run the wellbeing program at St Catherine’s school, in Sydney. I have worked across school systems and taught different subjects. The thing I have always taken away from my experiences at school is that the students whose parents let them try things out themselves often go further. I have two kids, Jack and Alice, who I have done most of these risks with, or will shortly (except, in all honesty, i’m avoiding risk 46!)

I volunteer as a Lifeline crisis support worker

and am obsessed with knitting and crochet (which, coincidentally is also a risk in the book too.)
