Walking Together: Learning to Be Fair and Kind (Years 1–2) is a culturally grounded course that introduces young learners to the values of fairness, empathy and respectful problem-solving through the lens of Indigenous wisdom. Centred around the traditional story How the Kangaroo Got His Tale, students explore big ideas—like sharing, listening, and working together—through hands-on activities, art, movement and storytelling. With 10 engaging lessons and educator insights that highlight Indigenous Emotional Intelligence, this curriculum-aligned course helps teachers create inclusive, caring classrooms where every child learns to walk together with kindness.
