Reform the Education System

Dear Friends and Supporters,

I hope you have had a chance to read the story connected to the link below. Reform of the Education system, to make it much better, for kids who don't like school is one of our important policies.

If you look at our Webpage you will see Policy number 8 which says: "Indigenous control of Indigenous school education."
Why I think this story is so important is that it highlights how even a simple change can really work in favour of our beautiful kids who get such a rough time in the current exam-based education system. As you can read for yourself, this non-Indigenous principal had the guts to make all his lessons go out of doors and he says it caused a huge change in the school.
Note: he says that suspesions and bad behaviour almost disappeared. Indigenous people understand in their bones that the natural environment is the best place for learning. Kids should stick their hands in the dirt, climb trees, fall over, and sim in rivers in order to learn. This should be normal for education, not something that happens just once a week if the kids are lucky.

If anyone else knows about schools who are doing it differently, and having success, please put it up on this Facebook site we encourage those of you who have had a bad run at schools to put up your stories because things can only change when we start to tell the truth about education.

Thanks,
Charlotte and Gab
