We spent some time with the Year 2 students Perth Waldorf School
earlier when it was Makuru.
See the full testimonial below.
"As part of our Local Surroundings Main Lesson, Class 2 went for a guided walk at Walliabup (Bibra Lake) with Casey from Koorda’s Crew. Casey shared many signs of the season Makaru, as well as how Noongar people lived off the plants and animals at the lake. We heard about how the Bibool (paperbark) was used and we even made our own natural glitter!
Casey was amazing. She shared her knowledge so clearly and in a way that was very engaging for the children. She kept referring back to the knowledge she had already shared, and the children still recall the Noongar names for plants and their uses weeks later. The care that the children put into the storybooks that Casey helped them to create was a reflection of the reverence and importance with which Casey shared her culture."
