'The Ngarrindjeri People is an Aboriginal studies course which details the history, culture and life experiences of the Aboriginal groups who were the original inhabitants of the areas along the River Murray, Lakes and Coorong.'

'This course is important in that Ngarrindjeri people are now a significant part of the South Australian community. Ngarrindjeri country, chiefly the River Murray and Coorong, is now used extensively for both agricultural and recreational purposes and through this course students will learn to appreciate its historical cultural significance in addition to its value as a natural resource.'

'The Ngarrindjeri People is a part of the 8-12 Aboriginal studies program which has been developed to meet the needs of students, teachers and Aboriginal people.' (Source: page 7)

' Children's Hour, a monthly paper for second to fifth-year primary pupils. Begun in 1889 by John Hartley the paper enriched children's diet of Royal Readers ... it was a cheap already a significant contributor, with his series on Australian explorers, begun in 1899. He extended his articles to include Australian literature, geography and Nature study, showing children it was a mistake to "think that to be a hero, and to do deeds which poets may write about, or artists make pictures of, you must live in other lands". Children and their parents, especially in "back country farmhouses", eagerly awaited each issue.' The series was an inspiration and model for the Victorian School Paper.
