This cross-cultural educational app was created by First Nations authors and illustrators at Ampe-kenhe Ahelhe (Children's Ground - Central Australia), using literacy-learning, interactive games to teach Arrernte and Luritja language. Dynamic illustrations engage the user in learning about features of the Central Australian landscape, as well as First Nations kinship and family relationships. Learn the Arrernte names for weather patterns, as illustrated by First Nations children. Explore the rhythms and seasons of the Central Australian landscape and how the land can teach and guide you. Find out about the creatures that move around at different parts of the day. See what kind of learning happens when First Nations children are out bush, on Country, with their families. Bilingual guided audio supports the user through a series of literacy games designed to support language learning and seeing the world from a First Nations perspective.
