On Friday 30th September 2011 Reiss attended his 3rd personal appearance as a Team Essex Ambassador at Alderton Junior School in Loughton, Essex. Reiss was treated to an opening ceremony performed by the children which included singing, dancing and music playing. Reiss then gave an inspirational talk about his traning and past competition results and what his hopes and dreams are for the future. The children then had the opportunity to ask Reiss any questions they had about gymnastics. After the opening ceremony the children participated in sporting activities which Reiss had great pleasure in taking part.
