Meet Mrs ZUCCHI…
Year: Reception
Class: Dolphins
About me…
Hello, my name is Mrs Zucchi.
I am very excited that I am going to be teaching reception class - it’s the most exciting learning journey and full of fun!
I have worked with children all my life, first as a physiotherapist, then as a mum to my daughter plus quadruplets - yes, three boys and a girl! My husband and I have lived in lots of places with our family… South Africa, Italy and America as well as here. I decided to study to teach when my children got older, so here I am enjoying helping children to love learning.
It will be fun to find out more about all the lovely children and families in our class this coming year and grow together.
I can’t wait to meet you all.
