'Kampawerr the senior elder for this country has travelled many times to her country with family and Wadeye Aboriginal Languages Centre workers to teach and document place names, dreamings and foot highways of this vast estate. These projects are critical to the documentation of Indigenous languages and knowledge and not only support keeping language strong in communities but they also make a significant contribution to the inclusion of Indigenous languages in schools and in particular the bilingual program at Wadeye.' Ku Kukpi is an ancestral dreaming story of the Djamindjung Rak Malgin people about a mother black-headed python and her baby. [Batchelor College]
