JUNIOR LEADERSHIP
Binambi Barambah 'Junior Leadership' Initiative
The Binambi-Barambah Aboriginal Corporation is building upon its successful camp program to include a “Junior Leadership” initiative that focuses on developing and strengthening the abilities of our young people to become effective leaders during the camp program and generally throughout their lives. With corporate support from Price Waterhouse Coopers, Binambi will be conducting its first two-day workshop with our junior leaders in 2010 and if successful will continue to expand our services in this area.
Aunty Ruth Hegarty's Books
Ruth Hegarty won the 1998 David Unaipon Award for unpublished Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander writers with her entry "Is that you Ruthie?"
"Is that you Ruthie", is about life as a Cherbourg Dormitory girl and the tremendous friendships and hardships endured by girls of Ruthie's age and vintage.
"Bittersweet Journey" is the sequel to "Is that you Ruthie" and it's about leaving the Dormitory system to become a wife and mother. "Bittersweet Journey was written to be shared by everyone, especially those who have known personal tragedy or abuse; and those who seek an authentic account of Aboriginal experience in our time.
