Teaching Team 2026

There are four classes in Foundation called FA, FB, FC and FD. Each class has a colour to help children find their room and their hats easily. Every class has dedicated teachers, and the Foundation community also has support staff who work across the group.

Our aim at St Thomas is for children to become familiar with their own class teacher, the community teachers, and then all staff across the school. This helps them feel safe, known and confident as they begin their school journey.

FA Green Room - Mrs Shuangshuang Liu

FB Yellow Room - Ms Emily Stecca and Ms Rochelle Smith (Fridays)

FC Blue Room - Mrs Nimanthi Perera and Mrs Brittany Madden (Tuesdays)

FD Pink Room - Mrs Cathy Song
