what a great opportunity for our young Aboriginal students!!!!
I was watching your programme on ABC Message Stick and I must say I was very very impressed, my background is that I was fostered out when I was 18 months old I am most appericate that I was loved and see the world on different perpective.
My Degree is in Bachelor of Resource Management/Assoicate Diploma in Applied Science and I still got too finish my other
degree in Bachelor Socail Science.
I would like too see a programme desiged in Indigenous Land
Management run by Aboriginal people and that our young people
can learn old skills and new.
And that we had these skills for the last 60,000 years or more
because they still don’t know how long it’s only been estimate
by the Anthorplogy.
Anthorplogy is one of the modlues that I have too finish.
I do hope you give me a call or email I would like too share
my dreams & Goals for the Future.
