Bedtime stories

 

On Monday the 21st - Friday 25th November we will be learning about the First Nations Bedtime Stories which is an annual week of storytelling. It brings Dreaming stories as old as time into homes and classrooms around Australia.

 

Every year Common Ground (First Nations not-for-profit) works with different First Nations creatives and communities to film five Dreaming stories. The films are shared online, and people come together to watch them over five days.

 

In two weeks we will be viewing a different story each week and doing some activities that help us make a deeper understanding of those stories.

 

Attached below is a little insight of what the bedtime stories could be. Feel free to check out https://www.commonground.org.au/ and have a watch of the stories yourself!
