Well done @Channel10AU 👏🏽

We love this initiative! 👏 Formally holding space for First Nations Language and Culture Educators in the education system is the best way to help ALL Australian students. Our research indicates it has a positive knock-on effect on how much the rest of their families know too!
🎉Great #Budget2022 news last night - the Govt is honouring it's election promise to fund First Nations Educators in 60 schools. Looking forward to the day all schools hold space for First Nations Educators to share the gift of ancient wisdom with all students. 👏 @JasonClareMP
🎉More of this please! 🎉 All Aussie kids deserve to learn from local First Nations peoples, their language, culture and truth. Hold space for local First Nations communities in schools. 👏 @bellarinetimes cc: @VictorianLabor @JasonClareMP

Holding space for locally approved, First Nations Cultural Educators in every primary school (the #KnowYourCountry campaign) is a great way for Prime Minister @AlboMP to follow through on this promise

We're celebrating Eddie & Bonita Mabo's vision for a European education system that could teach its skills and ideas alongside traditional Aboriginal and Islander culture. What an extraordinary and truly multi-cultural dream hey @JasonClareMP @LindaBurneyMP? #EddieMabo

All Australian children deserve to learn more about the local First Nations Country they're living on - and develop real relationships directly with the local community, learning from their unique culture and language.
We're calling on you to lead an evolution in the education system: To hold space for First Nations Cultural Educators approved by Traditional Owners to be the authentic guides students, parents and educators are calling for. knowyourcountry.com.au
