Earlier in March, our Rekindling Youth and Education Programs Team completed Gathering One in Port Augusta, South Australia!

Across these first days together, young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students came together to meet our Rekindling team, connect with one another, and step into a shared creative space grounded in culture, story and care. Through movement, conversation and listening, this first Gathering lays the foundation for trust, connection and cultural pride - the starting point of a journey they will carry forward together.

Our team looks forward to returning throughout the year to continue this work and walking alongside these young people as their stories take shape.

Introducing our Rekindling Youth and Education Programs Team for 2026!

Youth and Education Program Director - Sidney Saltner, Youth and Education Program Coordinator - Sani Townson, Youth and Education Programs Team Tutor - Amy Weatherall and Youth and Education Programs Coordinator - Lavinia Gibbs.

Rekindling inspires pride, kinship and a sense of strength in young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders through a series of dance residencies with secondary school-aged students. Over the course of the year, participants spend time On Country, gather stories with guidance from Community Elders and develop skills to produce thought-provoking performances and events.

Stay tuned for next week as we share their experience with students from Gathering One in Port Augusta, South Australia!

Another incredible year at the NSW Schools Spectacular, 2025 was truly Remarkable!

"Heal" opened the second act, featuring almost 200 of our Aboriginal Dance Company and Aboriginal Dance Ensemble.

A huge congratulations to our Youth Programs Tutor @holly_faulds for creating her first arena performance. Not only did Holly do the choreography, she also designed the costumes, and wove the chest pieces for our featured singers. A full circle moment for Holly, who was a member of the Aboriginal Dance Company herself from 2016-2019, she is the first ADC alumni to choreograph at Schools Spec.

A massive thank you goes to our amazing students that performed for us this year. Your dedication and pride in your Culture, shone through on stage, you really helped bring this piece to life and we are so grateful to you all. And a big thank you to your teachers for bringing you all the way across the state to participate.

A special shoutout to some of our Company parents, who spent hours hand painting all 200 costumes!

A big thank you to @mitchtambo for allowing us to use his beautiful song and consulting on the Language with our talented featured singers, Aurielle, Lily, and Kyla.

To our Ensemble and Company managers, thank you for always keeping things running smoothly, for caring for our students and ensuring they all felt welcome. And to all the Arts Unit staff, we certainly couldn't do it without your help.

Make sure to tune in to Channel 7 on Friday 19th December to catch the 2025 Schools Spectacular broadcast!
