CELEBRATING OUR YOUTH IN 2020

Many of these boys from 1978 have children of their own now. Some even have grandchildren. Sadly, some of the dancers are no longer with us.

Kowanyama boys dance group Pormpuraaw 1977. Pormpuraaw community was impressed with the young dancers.

Some students take an out of school interest with a group who frequent the Cultural Centre and show an interest in adults who are craftsmen at work at home. Bush school cultural classes were popular with boys in Aaron Davey’s two years of teaching at Kowanyama.
