Wadjiny Whole School Incursion - Thursday 25 May 2023

New Farm State School is pleased to be welcoming Wadjiny, an incursion for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories and cultures. This curriculum aligned incursion will provide all New Farm State School students with a lasting insight into Aboriginal histories and cultures. 

Troy Allen combines dance, storytelling, and music to explore the culture and day to day life in a hunter gatherer society. This immersive presentation allowed students to be involved in traditional dance. 

The students will be engaged and educated through the presentation of a collection of artefacts including traditional weapons, tools, nets and other everyday items. 

A constant throughout all his stories is a theme of great respect for land and all creatures that inhabit it.
