Richmond Primary is in East Fremantle, WA. It's a public primary school which caters for the suburb of Richmond. During my placement I was working alongside my mentor Rebecca Sorrell in a year 4 class. I focused on delivering lessons in maths and literacy. In the time I was there I also enjoyed working with the class to produce a skit for the end of term assembly inspired by the AFL Grand Final.
The school is in a catchment area which includes a number of families of players in the Fremantle AFL team. One of the highlights of the fortnight was the school sports day. I was encouraged to represent the teachers in a 60m sprint for parents and teachers in which I surprised everyone by beating a well known (and fast!) player in the Fremantle Dockers.
