Bios and Abstracts Principals Australia - Dare to Lead ‘Student and Teacher Engagement’ Conference National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Conference ‘Student and Teacher Engagement’ what makes the difference in improving outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students? Presenter Bios and Abstracts Principals Australia - Dare to Lead ‘Student and Teacher Engagement’ Conference 9.00am Welcome to Country ‐ Wurundjeri Elder 9.10am Conference Opening Comments: Geraldine Atkinson ‐ Victorian Aboriginal Educaon Associaon Inc. Geraldine Atkinson is a Bangerang/Wiradjuri woman who has devoted her career to expanding the possibilies available to Koorie people through educaon. For over 30 years Geraldine has been a significant presence in the Koorie and wider Victorian community, beginning as a Teacher’s Aide in 1976 to her current role as President of the Victorian Aboriginal Educaon Associaon Incorporated (VAEAI) since 1999. Geraldine’s role as a Teacher’s Aide was a first step towards extensive involvement in Koorie educaon across all sectors from early childhood to terary educaon. As a result of this posion, Geraldine became involved with VAEAI at the me of its incepon in 1976. Through VAEAI Geraldine was able to gain broad experience within Koorie Educaon, inially serving as the Adult Educaon and TAFE Specialist Representave. Geraldine is an innovator who played a pivotal role in the establishment of the Minimbah Adult Educaon Program, which provided Koorie people with an opportunity to take a new direcon through training. Geraldine was insistent that the program must be structured to provide pathways to employment, and it was successful in achieving this aim. The program has now been absorbed into the Goulburn/Ovens Instute of TAFE, of which Geraldine is a member of Council. Geraldine has also made a significant impact in the area of Early Childhood. The Lidje MACS child care centre near Shepparton was established in 1986 through a collaborave effort of which Geraldine was a leader. The centre was established out of the recognion that many Koorie children were disadvantaged as a result of their lack of aendance in early years' programs. It provides a range of services designed to give children the best start during their formave years, including long day care, occasional care, playgroups, vocaonal care, aer school care, day stay, emergency care as required and community educaon programs. As a recognised leader in Koorie educaon, Geraldine became President of VAEAI in 1999, and has been re‐ elected every year since. As President, Geraldine has been able to contribute her experse to key policies and strategies that have shaped Koorie educaon and have yielded significant improvement in outcomes. As President of VAEAI, Geraldine has also been instrumental in negoang and formalising the Wurreker strategy, launched in 2000 as a joint iniave of VAEAI and the then Office of Post Compulsory Educaon, Training and Employment (now the Office of Training and Terary Educaon). The equal partnership between the Koorie community and OTTE ensures that training delivery and support services value the aspiraons of individual Koorie students and enable Koorie communies to have a say in their training and employment future. In October 2001, former Premier Steve Bracks, with Geraldine Atkinson, launched the renewed partnership in educaon and training, Yalca. Yalca, meaning Yellow Box gum in the Yorta Yorta language, supports a birth‐ to‐death philosophy of educaon, placing the Koorie student at the centre of educaon policy and decision making, and acknowledges that local Koorie communies are best able to determine local educaon and training needs. In addion, Yalca acknowledges the need for, and provides the framework to develop and implement, collaborave iniaves and strategies across departments and agencies for the benefit of the Koorie community. Principals Australia - Dare to Lead ‘Student and Teacher Engagement’ Conference Geraldine also represents VAEAI on a number of Naonal and State Commiees while maintaining her involvement at the regional and local level. Currently Geraldine is a member of the following boards and commiees: • Chairperson – Lulla’s Children and family Centre • Deputy Chairperson – Goulburn Valley Aboriginal Educaon Consultave Group • President – Black Eagles Basketball Club • Chairperson‐ Cummeragunja Local Aboriginal Land Council • Deputy Chair – Secretariat of Naonal Aboriginal and Islander Child Care Co‐Chairperson – Wannik Project Board • Member – Premier’s Aboriginal Advisory Council • Member – Indigenous Higher Educaon Advisory Council • Director – Aborigines Advancement League In addion, Geraldine is the naonal Indigenous Educaon Consultave Body (IECB) representave to the Ministerial Council for Educaon, Early Childhood Development and Youth Affairs (MCEECDYA). Geraldine represents IECBs on the MCEECDYA reference group on Indigenous educaon and has an important role to play in contribung her direct experience of what works in community combined with her extensive policy knowledge. Geraldine regards this ability to act as link between policy and community as her principal funcon. As a community leader Geraldine has worked hard to ensure that real progress is made for Koorie people. Geraldine has always regarded educaon as being the best instrument of progress. 9.30am Keynote – Brian Giles‐Browne Title: Listening to the Voices From the collected data of 425 Collegial School Snapshots this presentaon will share the Voices of nearly 3000 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students and their teachers. Just what is it that students see as the qualies of “engagement”? What do teachers see as the qualies of “engagement” and the qualies of a good learner? What are the crical factors in ”successful” engagement and how do we measure this? How do school leaders “lead and manage” successful engagement in schools ? What role does the community have to play? What role do Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander staff play in supporng, developing and maintaining this engagement ? This keynote will be an interacve exploraon of the theme with data evidenced input from students and teachers. Brian is the Naonal Schools Coordinator for Dare to Lead, his role has allowed him to work in all states and territories and all geo locaons across the country. His work is centred around the development, implementaon and evaluaon of Dare to Lead resources, tools and workshop products.

  • Reconstructing Aboriginal Economy and Society: the New South Wales
    Reconstructing Aboriginal 12 Economy and Society: The New South Wales South Coast at the Threshold of Colonisation John M. White Ian Keen’s 2004 monograph, Aboriginal Economy and Society: Australia at the Threshold of Colonisation, represents the first anthropological study to draw together comparative pre- and postcolonial data sets and sources to explain the nature and variety of Aboriginal economy and society across the Australian continent. Keen’s (2004: 5) rationalisation for comparing the economy and society of seven regions was ‘mainly descriptive and analytical’, in order to ‘shed light on the character of each region, and to bring out their similarities and differences’. In doing so, as Veth (2006: 68) commented in his review of the book, ‘It speaks to meticulous and exhaustive research from myriad sources including social anthropology, linguistics, history, ecology and, not the least, archaeology’. Following its publication, Aboriginal Economy and Society: Australia at the Threshold of Colonisation won Keen his second Stanner Award from the Council of the Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies in 2005. In this chapter, I draw upon Keen’s comparative method to profile the ecology, institutions and economy of the Yuin people of (what is now) the Eurobodalla region of the New South Wales south coast at the time of European colonisation.1 1 Elsewhere I have documented the role of Aboriginal workers in the New South Wales south coast horticultural sector in the mid-twentieth century (White 2010a, 2010b, 2011) and have detailed the reactions of Yuin people to colonial incursions, which involved the development of intercultural relations that were mediated by exchange (White 2012).

    BUDGET ESTIMATES 2020-21 SPECIAL MINISTER OF STATE, PUBLIC SERVICE AND EMPLOYEE RELATIONS, ABORIGINAL AFFAIRS AND THE ARTS QUESTION – Integrity agencies (ICAC, LECC, Ombudsman, Electoral Commission, Auditor General) 1. Considering a NSW government spokeswoman said the Premier was grateful to the Auditor General for her work on the funding for integrity agencies, and the Legislative Council Public Accountability Committee has now delivered a second report on the issue, what has been done to implement a new funding model for the integrity agencies? 2. Has the Government implemented any of the recommendations from the Audit Office’s Special Report into the effectiveness of the financial arrangements and management practices in four integrity agencies? 3. Considering this report found that the current approach to determining annual funding for the integrity agencies presents threats to their independent status, shouldn’t the Government have acted quickly to adopt those recommendations? 4. How much funding was sought by the ICAC in the lead up to the 2020-2021 Budget? 5. Has the ICAC been granted supplementary funding for the 2020/2021 financial year? 6. Are the integrity agencies still subject to the efficiency dividend requirement? If yes: (a) How much will be required of each integrity agency, for the 2020-2021 Budget year, and for each year of the forward estimates? (b) What will be the impact on the number of job numbers in each agency, by agency and by year? ANSWER: Question 1-3 In November 2019 the Government requested that the Auditor-General undertake an independent review of the effectiveness of the financial arrangements and management practices of all integrity agencies.

  • Palerang Council Aboriginal History
    Appendix 2: Some Background on Aboriginal History Description of cultural landscape – Palerang LGA – version 2 Produced by Susan Dale Donaldson for Garrett Barry January 2015. An Aboriginal land tenure system has existed across Australia for many thousands of years. Whilst Aboriginal social organization across what is now the Palerang LGA can be described according to types of groupings including tribal, sub-tribal, clan and linguistic, religious and economic values determine how features of the natural world are utilised, valued and maintained. According to local Aboriginal creation mythology Daramulan gave form to the land and waterways, created animals [including totems] and humans, gave power to ‘clever people’ and defined the overarching Aboriginal Lore [Rose, James, Watson 2003]. Sadlier recorded a mythological story about Wunbula the Bat and his two wives relating to the Monga area [see Organ 1990]. Another mythological story place in the study area is Dithol [Pigeon House Mt] as described by Mackenzie in 1874 [see Organ 1990]: ‘…..Men, or Kurrakurria [sort of little birds] were playing. The eel starts out of a hole. They ran down to spear him. Went all the way to Pundutba. Thence to Pulinjera. Thence all the way to Moruya, found the deep water. Then all the men and women went along the bank, all the way to Biriry and Yirikul. News went over then to Mirroo, where the two Jea [Fishing Hawk]. Then those two went thence up to the sky. Then those two saw the fish; then those two stuck the spear into him. Then went into the water, then up the beach, fetched out the eel.
