Pioneering a shared history approach, our team worked with educators at the Wurundjeri Land and Compensation Cultural Heritage Council Aboriginal Corporation to develop and deliver a series of education programs about Aurora’s history to local schools.
The education programs, which we tailored to each school’s curriculum, are part of a much bigger interpretation program involving signage and solutions integrated with the landscaping that will be rolled out over several years.
