    A devout Mormon Sunday school teacher has been sentenced to three years in jail for abusing a girl in her care.

    The 39-year-old woman, who cannot be named, pleaded guilty to abusing the girl over a six-month period in 2009.

    The court heard she was the girl's Sunday school teacher initially and then offered her a home, where the majority of the offences took place.

    In sentencing, the judge said the woman was brought up as a devout Mormon and had lead a very sheltered life, but it did not excuse her offences.

    The judge said woman's actions were a gross breach of trust and told the girl she must never blame herself for what had happened.

    The woman was sentenced to three years and one month in jail, but will be eligible for parole in 12 months.
