Dear parents / caregivers

As part of our Indigenous Day on Thursday 5
th
June 2014 we are very pleased to be offering an
Aboriginal Technology show presented by Philip Green. K-6 students will enjoy the visual and tactile
experience of traditional technologies used by indigenous peoples across the varied environments of
Australia.

Philip Green has a large collection of museum-quality artefacts which are given out in multiple
touch-boxes for students to examine and handle.

A National Geographic photographer, Philip will use his stunning photos in an audio-visual
presentation of the native plants and wildlife used for food, clothing, medicine, shelter, weapons and
art.

There will be 3 performances on the day to accommodate all of our students and we are looking
forward to all the students K-6 participating in this wonderful opportunity. The cost of the performance
is $5.00 per child.

Indigenous Day will be a very exciting, fun filled day. To enable your child/ren to participate please
complete and return the permission note and payment to your childs class teacher by Tuesday 3
rd

June 2014.

Please note that students may wear mufti in the colours of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island
flags on Indigenous Day.

Thanks
Jenny Stillwell
Assistant Principal
