Welcome to Reception

Our teacher is Mrs Riley

"Since I was a little girl I always knew I wanted to become a teacher! I love working in Early Years. I love to sing, dance, discover and read stories with the boys and girls. My favourite story is The Gruffalo. I love spending time with my little boy, helping him to discover the world around him and going on adventures with my family.  We love visiting new places and having lots of fun!! I enjoy running, going to the gym and baking yummy treats!"

We are supported in our learning by Mrs Alexander - "I am married with three daughters. They all attend or have attended St. Teresa’s School. I enjoy spending time with my family, reading and l love going on walks, especially to the beach."
