A good education is like our songs – it is our dream for our children, grandchildren and future generations. It was our parents and our grandparents dream for us. We want the dream to be strong again. We want our children and our community to have strong bodies and minds and get their belief in themselves back again. Strong bodies and minds and a good education enable you to be strong in both worlds: white man’s ways and Aboriginal ways.
