Lore of the Land and the Sorry Resource Kit

Lore of the Land

'Visit' the Gunditjmara region of southwestern Victoria. Investigate its location and history.

'Meet' Banjo Clarke, Iris Lovett-Gardiner and Tina Saunders, three of the elders of this community.

Listen to Banjo, Iris, Tina and Patricia as they share their connections with the land. Compare their perspective on land with the land use maps (LAND USE-PLACE)

Explore the cultural forms through which this Indigenous community celebrates, maintains and expresses its values and beliefs - in music, art, story, song and ceremony.

Extend your knowledge of the region and the community by consulting the section UNDERSTANDING-ADDITONAL RESOURCES-GUNDITJMARTA.
