This term, our Year 3 and 4 students have had the wonderful opportunity to learn about Darug culture through their involvement with the Jannawi Dance Clan. Over the past six weeks, students have been guided in both traditional and contemporary cultural dance practices, exploring storytelling through movement with a focus on the Australian Native Honeybee. Today, they were excited to share a dance that communicates the significance of the Native Honeybee and highlights the sustainable practices of the Dharug People when sourcing honey. Throughout the program, students have also developed an understanding of how music, props, and language play an important role in cultural storytelling.
