In this unit, students will explore the history and current issues of Aboriginal labour in Australia. Through personal stories, films, and activities, they will learn about key industries, the exploitation of Aboriginal workers, and the impact of stolen wages policies. Students will also study the contributions of First Nations activists who fought for their rights.
In this unit, students will analyse films, conduct online research, and engage in creative writing to explore biographies, autobiographies, and memoirs. Inspired by the stories of Ballardong Noongar Elders, they will learn about life in 1960s Western Australia. Students will then write and publish their own biography, autobiography, or memoir, focusing on themselves or someone they value, deepening their sense of identity and understanding of others.
