Connecting The Dots Through Culture
The Joondoburri Walk
The Joondoburri Walk
This book was based on The 'Joondoburri Walk Project' a real walk which is located in the Shirley Creek Reserve nature space, situated behind the Bribie Island Community Kindergarten, in Cotterill Avenue, Bongaree.
Simply fabulous! The Joondoburri Walk Book is a superb example of collaboration, learning and engagement. It involves bringing together a group of young Bribie Island Community Kindergarten children in an active learning process with parents, the local Aboriginal community and teachers to produce an outstanding educational resource for the whole community to learn from and enjoy.
Inside are pictures of local plants and trees found on the Joondoburri Walk, drawings by the kids of the different plants and explanations of how local Aborigines use these plants along with their ties to culture and ancestors. The commentary is provided by various members of our local indigenous community, supported by a local botanist and author Alan Carr. It was all brought together with some clever graphic design and the help of an Indigenous Languages Grant.
