9PE1 Connects with Culture Through Traditional First Nations Game

As part of both our NAIDOC Week celebrations and our current unit on cultural games, 9PE.1 recently took part in a practical lesson exploring Gorri — a traditional First Nations game that involves throwing objects at a moving target, often representing animals. The students embraced the opportunity to connect with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture in a hands-on and respectful way, learning not only the physical skills involved but also the cultural significance of traditional games in First Nations communities. The experience sparked curiosity, teamwork, and a deeper appreciation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander heritage, inspiring meaningful reflection as part of their learning journey.
