Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Performance

Last Thursday, our K - 6 students were highly engaged in an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Performance enthusiastically performed by Ryka Ali. The performance included participatory dances with students and teachers, and an exploration of various instruments, artefacts, costumes and ‘painting up’ with ochre. As well as performing and teaching dances with audience participation, Ryka skilfully demonstrated how to play the didgeridoo. The performance was a wonderful way for our students to learn more about the oldest living culture in the world.

Also, students will be participating in activities for National Sorry Day (Friday 26^th May) and Reconciliation Week (27^th May – 3^rd June).
