First Nations’ Internship Program

This year we have established a new First Nations' Internship program with students from Dandjoo Darbalung through the McCusker Centre for Citizenship.

Our first intern through the program was Simon Hayward, a keen sportsman who plays for the Perth Demon's Football Club, who has recently completed his Bachelor of Science in Exercise and Health. Simon has now transitioned to a permanent position with the Fair Game team and will be working on a variety of projects including the continued development of our First Nations' Internship program and our Recycle & Donate program while studying for his Masters of Teaching next year.

Simon told us:

"I believe that sport has the power to change one’s motives in life and can steer people in the right direction, as it did for me. Helping disadvantaged kids is my dream and working with Fair Game can put me one step closer."
