Reflecting on NAIDOC Week (2024)

I hope the younger, better-educated and more empathetic generations strive for a greater understanding and love of Indigenous people.

I set the standard curriculum aside and we connected through a yarn, storytelling, using my favourite #Dreamtime story of Tiddalick the Frog.

Please take a look at this wonderful #acrostic poem they created!

This was a moment where connection truly met with content.

PS: While traditional conventions emphasise orthographic alignment, subtle links are common; there's no rule against stating the theme, as long as it adds meaning to the poem's purpose & style.

Alice Nannup and My Nan

I bought When The Pelican Laughed in 1992. It was the first book I'd read with a personal account of the Stolen Generation.
