16.01.2022 ABORIGINAL CULTURAL DAY On Wednesday 18 November, Karrendi Primary School held our first Aboriginal Cultural Day (ACA Day). ACA Day was a day was an opportunity for our students and staff to celebrate the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. The day started with the raising of the flags followed by Welcome to Country in Kaurna Language and a performance on the didgeridoo by Uncle Jack Buckskin, which was amazing.... The students participated in a range of cultural activities throughout the day. They made emus, shields, scratchie boomerangs, sand art, decorated boomerangs, clapping sticks and didgeridoos with Aboriginal symbols and jewellery making just to name a few. Some students went outside to learn about spear throwing with Uncle Jack, which was awesome as he had put out wooden animals on the oval for them to aim for. This activity was a favourite amongst the students and staff alike. At the end of the day, we came together for an Emu Parade to share what we had made and learnt. We would like to thank Jack Buckskin for opening the day with Welcome to Country, didgeridoo performance and for spending the day with our students teaching them spear throwing. It was a deadly day and I know all the students are looking forward to doing it all again in 2021. Thank you Vicki Lack Aboriginal Community Education Officer See more
