Of the 210 students enrolled at Kirton Point Primary School in Port Lincoln, SA, a large percentage identify as Aboriginal.
Both English and Barngala are spoken in the community of approximately 15,000, where few family homes have easy access to books and other literacy materials.
The second year of the pandemic has not stopped the ILF from delivering literacy programs to remote playgrounds, schools and Communities.
To celebrate the end of an amazing year, we have released our bilingual Festive Book packs.
Since 2016, the community of Kowanyama on the west coast of Cape York in Queensland has been receiving deliveries of books from our Book Supply program.
Kowanyama is 9 hours’ drive west from Cairns, and about 4.5 hours’ drive north from Normanton. Languages spoken in the community include Kokomenjen, Kunjen, Yer Yoront/Kokoberra and English.
Chuffed Skates isn’t just a roller-skate shop. It is a community where people connect to improve their mental and physical health, and bond over a love of roller-skating.
Ashley Chitty, an Indigenous skater on their team, chose to support the ILF because she wanted to support an organisation that makes a difference in the lives of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children.
