Keepers of the Earth
Indigenous Content
Australian Teacher supports the ‘Keepers of the Earth’ initiative of Indigenous Peoples Worldwide, aimed at ensuring that the unique indigenous cultures from which time-honoured traditional knowledge stems are safeguarded for generations to come.
One of the aims of this website is to educate young Australians in the ways of our indigenous people. Accordingly we want to present students with indigenous art, stories from the Dreaming, aboriginal languages, etc.
The authors of this site are aware of sensitivities that surround aboriginal customs and have acted with due diligence in collecting material for teachers and students to use in Australian classrooms.
We are indebted to staff at the Australian Museum in Canberra (both the Curatorial and Copyright departments), and to Martin Wardrop (Aboriginal Art Online) for their invaluable information, advice and guidance.
