The Trees Speak
Kings Park 6th - 9th October 2023
Our Year 4 students along with many hundred students across Perth have contributed their woven artwork for this extraordinary storytelling through light projection at Kings Park.
Our students were asked to make eggs, nests, or seed pods out of milk bottle strips to symbolise new life in the “Kambarang” Noongar season (second spring) which falls in October and November. While it was a challenge all students persevered and completed their tasks. We are delighted that their work will be included in this fabulous event.
This is a free event at Kings Park on the dates stated above. Make sure you take your family to experience this storytelling spectacle while connecting with the beautiful surroundings.
"Grounded on Noongar Boodjar, this event is a fitting celebration of the wonders of Kambarang and presents intimate and lasting moments that reconnect visitors to the country." Culture and the Arts Minister David Templeman:
