Abstract

This article is based on an interview conducted with four of the central figures in the development and operation of the ArrernteEarly Childhood Project. The project works with Aboriginal families in the centre of Australia and is developing culturally appropriate curricula for children aged from three to six years, in the Arrerntelanguage.

The project stresses the need to involve grandparents, aunts, uncles and elders in the development of curricula so that the Arrernteculture can stay alive alongside other Australian cultures.
