This Indigenous Literacy Day, we’re reflecting on this year’s theme, Country Is Our Teacher, and the importance of First Nations stories, cultures and languages.
Stories are woven throughout Mungejup — from the history of the Aboriginal Housing Company and the community of The Block, to the people, experiences and culture that have shaped, and continue to shape, Redfern today.
Stories have always been an important way of sharing knowledge and passing experiences from one generation to the next, helping us understand where we’ve come from, who we are and the communities around us.
Today, we celebrate the stories that continue to teach us, connect us and keep culture alive.
