NAIDOC Week: Keep the fire burning!
This year's NAIDOC theme is 'Keep the fire burning! Blak, loud and proud' so we're revisiting Dreaming stories shared with us by Clayton on Adnyamathanha Country and Brittanie on Gumbaynggirr Country.
Australia is full of diverse Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island Nations. From the Bunuba to the Wiradjuri, the island clans of Zenadth Kes to the palawa people, every mob has its own language and unique culture. Each episode of Little Yarns will visit a different Nation; to listen to the sounds of Country, share some language and... have a little yarn!
Listen to the waves on saltwater Country and sing songs in Gumbaynggirr, play by the river on Yorta Yorta woka, and hear stories passed down through generations by a Yolngu Elder. There are hundreds of First languages to listen to and learn from!
Little Yarns is a co-listening podcast series for pre-schoolers. Ideal for families listening together at home or as a listening resource in early learning centres. Little Yarns celebrates the diverse languages, stories and Countries of Indigenous Australia.
