ATSI Observances
Urain was born in Brewarrina but she moved around a lot as a child and went to many different schools. Urain moved back to Brewarrina in High School and has stayed here pretty much ever since.
At the Brewarrina Aboriginal Museum, where Urain works, they teach people about the fish traps, history and culture of Brewarrina.
Urain is also an Aboriginal artist; she uses paint and burning on many different objects eg canisters, mirrors, boards and canvases. Year 9 Visual Arts are booked in to do a painting workshop with Urain.
Urain has been a Christian her entire life but she hasn’t always gone to Church. When she gave her heart to the Lord it made her realise how lucky she is to have the life she has. Urain is looking forward to sharing her knowledge about her culture and art with students at Green Point Christian College.
Urain will work from the Library, she welcomes student interaction but students will also see Urain as she visits many classrooms and assemblies during her stay.
If you have questions about Observance days or ATSI events, please email Mrs Nicole van Wyk: nvanwyk@gpcc.nsw.edu.au .
