Yes, it was amazing how Mrs. Richardson in her 50s could stand on her head during P.E. class, thus demonstrating to us how this could be done theoretically speaking. I think that Shannon was almost the only student who actually managed to do that, following her example. The rest of us only got partway toward that feat, floundering about. Can you stand on youer head?
It was really Mrs. Richardson who insisted on everyone singing all the national anthems represented in the classroom, which included mostly Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and also our Spanish teacher taught us how to sing the Salvadoran national anthem. "Saludemos...." They are very proud of that song.
