The Ngahri program invites students to explore the cultural significance of Aboriginal dance through storytelling, music and movement. Students learn how traditional and contemporary dances share stories, celebrate culture and strengthen connections to Country and community. Through guided participation, students discover animal movements, cultural expression and the importance of passing knowledge between generations.
