Aboriginal performance at Fairfield West Public School

On November 5 2014 Fairfield West Public School enjoyed a wonderful performance called ‘Kadu' by Aboriginal performers Ryka Ali, Aunty Cindy (Ryka's grandmother) and Ryka's sister. The performance demonstrated the richness, of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islands cultures and included participatory dances with the students and staff. The performers also explained various instruments, artefacts and costumes specific to the Islands. Students were very engaged and many went up on the stage to participate in dancing. We had an amazing demonstration by Ryka of the extraordinary versatility of the didgeridoo. A fun and educational time was had by all.
