Cultural Programs

Learning about the many different people, countries and cultures in the world is an important part of life at Brungle.

Aboriginal culture plays a significant role in our schools identity and learning programs, as evidenced by our school grounds, Wiradjuri signage, Dreaming Room and teaching programs such as Wiradjuri language. This is a reflection of the majority of our students being of Aboriginal descent and the active involvement of the Brungle Elders and community.

We also learn about other cultures by:

• participating in annual CWA Country Study competitions,
• visits from the Gundagai High School French teacher to teach French language and culture
• talks and slideshows from overseas visitors
• country studies in HSIE lessons

Over the years we have also had access to language teaching programs in Japanese, Indonesian and French. All students are currently involved in weekly Wiradjuri language lessons.
