Our Bloke

March 9, 2017 by Maggi Barnard


Aidan Clarke

How long have you lived in Forbes and what do you like about living here?
I have lived in Forbes my whole life, 21 years. Forbes is my home and I wouldn’t want to live anywhere else.

Where do you work and what do you enjoy most about your work?
I work at Forbes Learning Ladder as a room lead- er. The thing I love most about my job is watching the children grow and learn each and every day.

What do you do to unwind after work and on weekends?
Well I am going to be completely honest and say if I am not fishing or having a few tips at Randwick on a Saturday, then I will be parked in front of the TV watching something sporty.

What are you really good at?
I am happy to be an average guy. That said I am really good at caring for and educating kids and received acknowledgement for the 2017 Junior Citizen of the Year.

If you could have a super power, what would it be?
To be a genius and to help find a cure for some of these dreadful dis- eases on our planet.

What is your pet hate?
My pet hate without a doubt would be leaving the toilet seat up! I am a bloke, but you must remember I work with women and have to keep my eye on it!

Tell us about your best holiday ever.
Like I said I love Forbes! Well…. we took a drive to Bogan Gate once!
