Story and Art Work

Embedded in Aboriginal Pedagogy

Session presented by: Annette Sax from Yarn Strong Sista

Summary

Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework (VEYLDF)

During this Professional Development workshop we will take a closer look at the
Aboriginal Cultural Knowledge Story which was written by Yorta Yorta academic Dr Sue
Atkinson Lopez, to reflect the revised Victorian Early Years Learning
and Development Framework (VEYLDF). The Ochre painting which
accompanies the Framework was created by Taungurung Artist,
Annette Sax. We will examine the process of creating Ochre works in
this style and unpack the Aboriginal symbols and animal tracks used
by Annette in the painting

This workshop provides the opportunity:

In this workshop we will discuss the Three Elements of the VEYLDF
which include Practise Principles, Outcomes, Transition and Continuity of Learning. Both
the story and art work are embedded in Aboriginal Pedagogy and this workshop will
highlight the importance of linking Aboriginal culture within early years curriculum. This
workshop will be conducted by Annette Sax and include storytelling and hands on art
experience.
