Cultural Awareness Training

Throughout Term 3 it is going to be an exciting time for staff and students at Lockleys North. 

 

Staff we be participating in cultural awareness training with Jack Buckskin. During this time we will learn more about culture, language and ways in which we can incorporate Indigenous perspectives into our teaching and learning. This will be followed up by 2 language sessions with Early Years Teachers and Primary Teachers. Our purpose is to gain confidence in teaching Kaurna language to our students. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rusted Tin -Contemporary Aboriginal Arts by Scott Rathman

The LNPS school community have a wonderful opportunity to now purchase their own pieces of Scott's art to have at home. This includes prints, canvas and book marks.  The pieces are based on the work Scott has completed around our school about community, friendship and togetherness.

 

Next term Scott will be continuing some painting work with the aim of bringing our local native flora and fauna into our learning spaces. 

Student Learning

Classes have been focussing on sharing and creating their own versions of acknowledgement to country, learning greetings, singing songs and sharing Dreaming stories. Students have been recognising our unique differences and also what brings us together by making connections based on respect and care and concern.
