04.01.2022 Imagine if you had never been home. Sadly, many Wik children have never been to their own Country. They may have been told about where their family comes from, ...but they don’t have any real connection to their home yet. Later this month APN Cape York will return 30 Aurukun children to their Wik Traditional homelands for a four day experience that will help define their future. All Australians can help.
