State’s new curricula for years 7 to 10 released as part of the shift to explicit teaching

This sounds like a positive change, definitely a much better grounding in Australian history than I received at that age. It is pretty wild that you can live in a colonial country without ever being taught what colonisation means for indigenous peoples but that is the world we’ve been living in until recently.

    We defs didn’t study this at school in 2000. Just like the stolen gen. None of the massacres and defs non of the resistance.

    Aboriginal people were reduced to non participants in history. A group of people whites acted on, but did not act themselves.
