Students connect to Country

by Brighton Council

Grade 1/2 students and teachers from East Derwent Primary School JRLF joined Connected Beginnings Lutruwita/Kutalayna Collective, Derwent Catchment Project and Brighton Council for a special day at Green Point Reserve.

Students were invited to see, touch, smell and listen to Country, connecting with the land through activities like cultural dance, landcare, mapping and clay play. This experience was designed to empower local young people to observe and respond to a changing climate by strengthening their bond with Country and supporting its health.

A big thank you to the Tasmanian Climate Change Office for making this event possible through grant support.
