This project will engage children in discussions on sustainability, our connection with the land and the histories and cultures of Indigenous Australians. There a several reasons why Australian children should learn about Aboriginal history and culture. An underlying factor is that we live in Australia were children should have a good knowledge of Australian history. Children will have the opportunity to understand and acknowledge the value of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures to Australian society and possess the knowledge, skills and understanding to contribute to, and benefit from reconciliation between indigenous and non-indigenous Australians.
