Staff or Working Group members set aside time to watch The Australian Wars documentary series and the Narragunnawali webinar; Teaching The Australian Wars: A conversation with Rachel Perkins and Culture is Life. The conversation – with director Rachel Perkins and Culture is Life’s Thara Brown, including audience participation from education professionals – unpacks the key learnings of the three-part series and the Education Resources.
Audiences reflect on the significance of learning, unlearning and relearning knowledge and understanding of Australia’s longest and perhaps most defining war - the Frontier Wars. They consider how First Nations oral histories are a fundamental part of Australia’s reconciliation journey, and in reconciliation in education.
