S4 E5 The Problem We All Live With - For National Sorry Day

The Grow Your Mind Podcast

This National Sorry Day, we have brought back a previous episode and it's probably best for upper primary school students. Miss Thea’s awesome class talks about racism, respect, empathy and curiosity.

During the Meet The Experts section we hear from a bunch of truly wonderful kids from Gawura School, a Kindergarten to Year 6 school for local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children in Sydney’s CBD. They share some interesting facts about their culture, as well as some words from their various language groups and they also read a powerful dreamtime story about listening and talking less.

We thank and have huge respect for all the people having brave, awkward and important conversations with their children and communities. This episode was inspired by the words of Austin Channing Brown about being a better human and the joyful attitudes of the Gawura School kids.
