10.01.2022 Did you know? Our Koorie Outreach Support Program is statewide. This means that Aboriginal students at all study levels, anywhere in the state can engage an Out...reach Facilitator. The Koorie Outreach Support Program assists with connecting Koorie learners and their families to the supports needed to achieve active and positive engagement in learning after transitioning back to classrooms. If you are a Koorie learner or know one who is struggling with re-engagement or needing education support, call and have a yarn to an Outreach Facilitator on 1800 VAEAI 1 (1800 823 241). Outreach Facilitators are available for Koorie learners of all ages and all education levels and can connect you to a range of supports in your area.

Took the Children away https://youtu.be/-Ewkw3UpB54 This story's right, this story's true I would not tell lies to you Like the promises they did not keep And how they fenced us in like sheep. Said to us come take our hand Sent us off to mission land. Taught us to read, to write and pray Then they took the children away, Took the children away, The children away. Snatched from their mother's breast Said this is for the best Took them away. The welfare and the policeman Said you've got to understand We'll give them what you can't give Teach them how to really live. Teach them how to live they said Humiliated them instead Taught them that and taught them this And others taught them prejudice. You took the children away The children away Breaking their mothers heart Tearing us all apart Took them away One dark day on Framingham Come and didn't give a damn My mother cried go get their dad He came running, fighting mad Mother's tears were falling down Dad shaped up and stood his ground. He said 'You touch my kids and you fight me' And they took us from our family. Took us away They took us away Snatched from our mother's breast Said this was for the best Took us away. Told us what to do and say Told us all the white man's ways Then they split us up again And gave us gifts to ease the pain Sent us off to foster homes As we grew up we felt alone Cause we were acting white Yet feeling black One sweet day all the children came back The children come back The children come back Back where their hearts grow strong Back where they all belong The children came back Said the children come back The children come back Back where they understand Back to their mother's land The children come back Back to their mother Back to their father Back to their sister Back to their brother Back to their people Back to their land All the children come back The children come back The children come back Yes I came back.
