Mrs Watkin
Blue group
I am Mrs Watkin. I have been teaching at Mawson Primary for five years.
I have taught Year One and Year Two. I have seen our school grow from very small to very big over the year.
I have a one year old son. He has taught me a lot about being a great teacher and the amazing role parents play as the first educators of their children.
I love to read stories and sing and dance. My favourite author is Julia Donaldson.
In my classroom, you will see lots of hands-on learning and hear lots of conversations about all the fun activities we are do.

Amanda Friend
Red and Yellow groups
Hi, I am Ms Friend. I work in the Preschool on Wednesdays with the Red and Yellow groups. On other days I am a busy mum to 4 little boys. I love working at Mawson and have got to know many families in my time. My 4 year old twins have just started Preschool too this year so I can relate with many of you who have just started for the first time on the school journey.
I love watching children learn through play and on Wednesdays I will be taking the children up to the school library to read stories and experience being part of Mawson Primary.
