CDU Indigenous student visits Yirrkala School and embedding WCE activities into the school program
I was most fortunate to spend a week in Maningrida with the WCE team and Aboriginal people from Northern Territory communities. Clearly, the maintenance of relationships within the complex kinship system is a vital part of keeping Aboriginal languages and cultures alive.
On the 24th of June 2016, the WCE Steering Group members met in Alice Springs and were privileged to be invited to visit the Yuendumu community the day prior.
On Thursday 11th August the WCE Team attended the Tennant Creek Careers Expo to provide advice at the CDU booth along with Mr Peter Strachan from the Alice Springs Campus.
We were welcomed to this beautiful country by Dean Yibarbuk, where he told us a story on how Maningrida became a community and about the different languages that are spoken across the community.
