Warami, this is how we say hello in the Dharug language. Dharug is the land where we live today. There are over 300 Aboriginal languages including Dharug, Wiradjuri, Gunggari, Bininj, Dharawal and many more. The Dharug people are originally from the Blue Mountains, to Sydney, New South Wales. The Aboriginal Flag has 3 colours - Black to symbolise the Aboriginal people, yellow to represent the sun and red to represent the relationship of people and earth to the land. 

Last term the Aboriginal students participated in a dance group with different schools in Australia, where they learnt an Aboringial dream time dance. 

At James Busby High School the Aboriginal students are having help by Mr Schafer, Ms Prins and Ms Sandilands.
