Yarning Circle at Riverstone High SchoolThe LLC worked in collaboration with Riverstone High School to build a yarning circle. The school is comprised of 800 students and 90 teachers with one Aboriginal Educational Coordinator. The school students began learning the Dhurag language in the beginning of 2024, along with incorporating other cultural traditions into the class schedule. The idea was proposed that the school construction class could design the circle themselves as a part of their major project. Below is an image of the mock up the class designed for the circle. This yarning circle construction and open day, run by the Together in Nature program, was organised by Hawkesbury-Nepean Landcare Network, constructed by students and made possible by funding from the Western Sydney Primary Health Network (WSPHN). WSPHN is operated by WentWest Ltd.https://landcare.nsw.gov.au/groups/hawkesbury-landcare-network/album/1000001730.jpg/viewhttps://landcare.nsw.gov.au/groups/hawkesbury-landcare-network/album/1000001730.jpg/@@images/image-1200-32ec67e918efb57838151c2483427c6a.jpeg
