Hello!  My name is Christine Estelle and live in Surf City, North Carolina.  My family moved here from New Jersey ten years ago to join the rest of my family that were already here in Wilmington. In New Jersey, I was a teacher.  I taught 1st, 3rd and 4th grade over 18 years. When we came to NC, I taught 3rd and 4th grade at Castle Hayne Elementary and then 6th Grade at a middle school.  I am super excited to be here.

My husband, Christopher, is an Executive Chef and owner of a restaurant in North Topsail Beach.  It’s called Splash by the Sea and when my students and families come to visit me there, I buy them a cookie skillet dessert!  It’s so delicious!

I really love teaching and I am ready to start the year with you!!  It's going to be an awesome year!!!
