Bidyara and Gungabula

Our Culture

Added by First Languages Australia

Description John Waterton teaches the Bidyara and Gungabula languages in the central Queensland town of Woorabinda.

The languages were thought to be lost for many years, but through the hard work of people like John, they are being reintroduced back into the community.

Here, John takes us through the parts of the face.

Produced by John Waterton, Felicity Doolan, Annalee Pope, Jewel Pope, Nicky Pope and Lisa Clarke

This video was originally contributed to the ABC Open Mother Tongue project, which invited Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities to share a story about their mother tongue.
