The Crèche Kit is a resource designed to help children’s services staff in remote communities learn the basic skills to run their own children’s service. The kit was developed with the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations funding, by staff from Batchelor Institute and Charles Darwin University, NT.
Ngoonjook seeks to make relevant material available to an Indigenous readership and to all those interested in Indigenous Australian issues. Themes explored include: education, health, cultural identity, natural and cultural resource management, the arts and linguistics.
