  • 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.

  • 14 Aboriginal Languages Programs in TAFE NSW: Delivery Initiatives and Strategies
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Sydney eScholarship 14 Aboriginal languages programs in TAFE NSW: delivery initiatives and strategies Jackie Cipollone1 Abstract There is a recognised link between culture and language and each is dependent on the other. Language orders and makes sense of a group’s culture, and a group’s culture is bounded by language. Aboriginal language skills, then, can play a critical role in developing Aboriginal cultural identity. The recognition of the language–culture relationship forms a valuable part of the ‘broader Indigenous development agenda that seeks to strengthen individuals and promote sustainable communities’ (Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Commission 2004, p. 1). Consistent with this the Report of the Review of Aboriginal Education notes: Students’ knowledge and use of Aboriginal languages are fundamental to the development of their identity and enhance their self esteem. Since the teaching and learning of languages provide an important gateway to Aboriginal culture, this process also ensures that the school staff and community understand and respect their students’ heritage. It is important that students are increasingly given access to the study of Aboriginal languages… (New South Wales Aboriginal Education Consultative Group Inc. & New South Wales Department of Education & Training 2004, p. 113). The first part of this paper will outline a Technical and Further Education New South Wales (TAFE NSW) response to The Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission Training Policy Statement 2004–06, which led to the development of three nationally accredited Aboriginal language qualifications. The second part of this paper will present three case studies that show how Aboriginal languages programs are being delivered in TAFE NSW, and report on some of the successes and challenges experienced in doing so.
