Cultural Stories Book Launch

The Cairns and District ESL Unit are proud to make available to the public bilingual stories from some of the cultures of their clientele. The publication of these stories developed from work between ESL AVTs and students of Papua New Guinean, Samoan, Torres Strait and Hmong cultures. The stories have been published in both their traditional languages and english. They were developed in close consultation with either the elders of the communities involved or the original owners of the stories.

The books are available for purchase from the Cairns and District ESL unit based at Cairns West SS. For more details please contact Debbie Hughes at dhugh28@eq.edu.au.
