For many thousands of years, Australia’s First Nations people have been telling stories. These stories speak to the geography, value systems and cultural protocols of the country and people they belong to. But as we move toward more urban lifestyles, how will oral storytelling traditions be preserved?
Adelaide Festival Centre’s centrED invites you to take your seat around the proverbial campfire and hear from local storytellers in this online version of OUR STORIES – a special opportunity for children to be immersed in traditional stories and share in First Nations culture and language.
South Australian Year 3 teachers might like to incorporate some of the videos from OUR STORIES into their delivery of the Department for Education English Year 3 Unit 5: Timeless Narratives.
