Bardi Culture

Mr Vincent has been working on translations from English to Bardi of an acknowledgement and welcome to country. He hopes that our leadership students will one day be able to welcome visitors in the Bardi language. The hope is also that our children will be confident enough to speak in Bardi and keep the language alive. This is what we are working towards.
