At St Kevin’s we always promote the richness of diversity among Australians who come from many lands to make up our unique multicultural society. We embrace the contribution of our First Nations people who have lived, loved and raised their children on this land for tens of thousands of years.
Gregg Dreise, a proud Kamilaroi and Euahlayi man, shares his culture with kids.
Culture, music and storytelling have run through his family’s blood since time began. Gregg is a talented storyteller who uses didgeridoos, guitars, laughter and high-energy performances to pass on culture, unity and wisdom through his educational talks.
This week the children have enjoyed singing one of his songs, ‘My Country and Me’ which encourages kids to enjoy the natural beauty of our country and ensure it is protected for current and future generations.
You might enjoy listening to this very catchy song. The chorus will stay with you for a while. Click on the link to play.
