Connecting to Country at Kings Park

Our Year 1 and 2 students went on an exciting excursion to Kings Park this term. They took part in a special program called Koora Koora Kaarta Koomba, which helps children learn about the Noongar people — the Traditional Owners of the land where Perth is built.The students enjoyed listening to stories, learning some Noongar words, playing traditional games, and walking through the bush. They learned how the land has changed over time and how First Nations people have cared for it for many thousands of years.This program helped our students understand and respect First Nations culture. It also helped them see how important it is to look after the environment and care for each other.We thank the Kings Park Education team for giving our students such a fun and meaningful day of learning.
