The Community desires to do this by protecting its interests and values while preserving for future generations its unique Identity, Heritage and Culture. Our Goals To achieve this vision, Wreck Bay Aboriginal Community Council’s (Council’s) goals are: h Sole Ownership of all lands and waters within Jervis Bay Territory; h Sole management of its freehold land and waters; allowing for Community responsibility, empowerment and self determination; h Sole representation of all Community’s united and democratically agreed interests at all levels of Government and in all external dealings; so as to protect Community members’ rights; h Environmentally sustainable development to allow a productive economic base for the Community by managing Booderee as an ongoing Park; the Community seeks to protect the land and water while earning income, creating jobs and achieving financial security; h Social and cultural development linked with appropriate cultural training and education, to improve Community empowerment and management, security and wellbeing; while preserving Community values; h Improve health, housing and living standards to levels at least comparable with good practice in other Australian communities; and h Recognition and support from the wider Australian community and Government; to achieve these worthwhile and positive goals.

It's about the seven sister dreaming, that is a story that governs our land and our universal connection to the dreaming. It is also about the connection to the ocean where our dreaming stories that come from the ocean life that feeds us, teaches us about survival, amongst the sea life. It is stories of mammals, whales and dolphins that hold sacred language codes to the universe. It is about our existence from the first sunrise to present day. We are caretakers of our mother, the land. It is in balance with the universe to maintain peace and harmony.

  • 16 Developing the Dhurga Program at Vincentia High School: the Language Teacher’S Perspective
    16 Developing the Dhurga Program at Vincentia High School: the language teacher’s perspective Karen Lane1 Abstract This paper describes the introduction and teaching of Dhurga at Vincentia High School on the south coast of New South Wales. It begins with an explanation of who was involved in the initial research and planning phase and the rationale for implementing the local language in the school curriculum. It describes the relationship among community members, school staff, thelinguist and the Board of Studies and focuses on the team teaching approach taken by the Aboriginal community language teacher and myself (an experienced teacher of Indonesian). The paper outlines how we overcame some practical challenges and describes the types of activities that we have found successful with the students, and which are supportive of learning through a communicative language teaching approach. Vincentia High School is a comprehensive state high school on the south coast of New South Wales (NSW). It is within walking distance of Jervis Bay and a short bus ride to Booderee National Park, managed by the traditional owners of this land, the Wadi Wadi people. Of the 1100 students who attend Vincentia High School, approximately ten percent identify as Aboriginal. These students come from the surrounding towns and villages including Huskisson, Vincentia, Sanctuary Point, Erowal Bay, Old Erowal Bay, Wrights Beach, Hyams Beach, St Georges Basin, Basin View, Tomerong, Wandandian, Sussex Inlet, Woollamia, Jervis Bay Village and the Aboriginal community of Wreck Bay. Since the opening of the school in 1993 Aboriginal students have featured prominently in its success in a variety of areas.
