Bringing them home
Through these teaching and learning sequences, students will develop an understanding of the experiences of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples since the arrival of the British in 1788. They will investigate a variety of government policies enacted to govern Indigenous Australians. In particular, students will explore the effects of the policies of forced removal of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children from their families.
