Aboriginal Incursions for the Australian Education Sector

Aboriginal Incursions programs enrich each schools cultural understanding and provide opportunities for students and teachers to work with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples first-hand. Our educators help develop students’ identities where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories, cultures and knowledge are a part of each individual student’s identity. 

The Australian Curriculum has emphasised learning Aboriginal history and Aboriginal culture to engage all students in reconciliation, respect, and recognition of traditional owners

We contract and communicate with our facilitator's and our clients very well and foster amazing relations to allow Aboriginal facilitator's the best opportunity to deliver culture in healthy and safe environment so they can help foster student groups and company workforce’s that are culturally adept, inclusive and reflective of the rich diversity of Australia's indigenous heritage.

Aboriginal Incursions work with Aboriginal peoples from many different parts of country helping us present authentic workshops everywhere.
