Our Dance

Our Dance Synopsis

Under the moon, by the big gum tree,
let's dance and sing in the corroboree.

With ochre on our bodies, Our dance awaits,
Our mob, Our culture, let's celebrate.

Join in the fun as we come together and dance in the corroboree! Learn how to slither like a snake, jump like a kangaroo, crawl like a goanna, run like an emu and fly like an eagle.

A joyful celebration of First Nations culture and Australia's unique animals through dance and music, with rhyming actions to get young readers moving and vibrant illustrations from Noongar illustrator Janelle Burger.
