There are four indigenous education programs - three in NSW and one in the NT sponsored by two K-12 independent schools - Gawura in central Sydney, which was written up in the Sydney Morning Herald Feature of Saturday 24 July and which won a national Award in 2020 - and Darkinjung, Dhupuma and Ngarralingayil, which were the subject of a feature article in the W/E Australian Magazine of Saturday 17 July. Wellness is not the feature of the schools per se, but it is an identified feature of their interventions as I understand them.

Creativity or Dance as a wellness intervention. Why? It's an extracurricular activity that has positive research results towards students developing physical, spiritual and cognitive health. In addition, dance and creativity transcends language barriers, ethnicity as in the case of dance, a nonverbal practice. Ultimately dance and creativity is enjoyable and develops a different kind of intelligence. I am certain the students will enjoy outside of their academic lessons.

In my experience, the Circle of Courage has been highly effective in supporting and transforming classrooms especially those serving students who are Native American. This does in fact support wellness as it focuses on belonging, independence, mastery, and generosity. It is based on strategies to promote psychological wellness and positive youth development. It can also be used as an intervention program, but often used as a preventative program. https://starr.org/circle-of-courage/

Hi Abukare Kwame. I do not have a formal reference as to my knowledge, the programs have not conducted formal external research. The two websites to the schools may contain further information: Barker College Hornsby NSW and St Andrews Cathedral School Sydney NSW. The two newspaper articles I referred to may hopefully be obtained by online inquiry. Best. N

Thanks to everyone, especially Neil Tucker, Samantha Jennings, and Adrea Grocke for your responses and suggestions.

Thanks Abukari I wish you the best with the project, if you need any further support please email me at [email protected]

The best program is to develop health and environmental awareness to conserve environmental resources
