Indigenous Perspectives

I also believe we need to bridge the gap, I feel this won't happen until our government are more willing to step up to the plate, they need assistance in so many areas such as schooling, health, job opportunities, the list goes on. Lets face it, it has been spoken about since I was a young child, and over twenty years later nothing has happened.
Once I am a teacher, I will be incorporating alot of culture into the classroom, not just the indigenous culture but Chinese, Korean etc, we have so many students that have moved to Australia from many countries and still have families overseas.
I have found a couple of websites I thought may be helpful in our classrooms one day. Teach our children about the Dreamtime and their culture.

Hope this helps guys.
Cheers
