Authentic Aboriginal learning experiences for schools, organisations and communities — delivered by Nyoongar people with a deep, personal connection to Country.
Whether we come to your school or you join us in the bush, every program connects students and participants with living Nyoongar culture — stories, tools, language and Country that have endured for thousands of years.
Koora-Middi Program
About This Program
Koora means "In the beginning" — Middi means "the medium."
This flagship excursion takes students on a living journey through Nyoongar history along the Swan River — one of Australia's most significant Aboriginal Dreaming Trails. Programs are tailored for different age groups, and teacher consultation on content is always welcome.
A Welcome to Country and Smoking Ceremony is available by request.
