Baraya Baray ~ Whale Song 2025 online Primary Workshop

Baraya Barray (Sing Country) is a multi-artform Poetry in First Languages program that focuses on revitalising and celebrating Indigenous languages and knowledges, connecting communities and highlighting the relationship between language and Country.

Baraya Barray ~ Whale Song, specifically celebrates saltwater songlines of the East Coast, following the migration of Humpback Whales, through intergenerational workshops, cultural learnings, and the creation of poems, songs, and dances in Indigenous languages. Through listening closely to our non-human kin and Country, it asks the question - ‘What can we learn from our first language holders?'

This free digital workshop celebrates the migration of Humpback Whales along the east coast. Through this workshop students will learn the significance of whales to our salt water communities, what they can teach us about Caring for Country and the connections between language, song and communities. Participants will be guided to craft poems and enrich learning outcomes across sustainability, First Nations cultures & histories, English & Science.

Suited for Years 3-6.
