Our Staff

Hello, My name is Ms Leonè and I am the teacher for the Coral Red class, I have been at Fun First since early 2016. I’m originally from South Africa. I am qualified in early years and have eight years of experience in teaching. Throughout my career I have dedicated a lot of my time to the social and emotional development of each individual child. I take great pride in my work and make sure that each child receives the best care and love that they all deserve. I’ve been a teacher at Fun first nursery for over three years now and I’m very happy to be part of this early year setting. Some of my favourite things include being outdoors, spending time with friends and family as well as travelling.
