Abstract

Teacher's abilities to access relevant and engaging resources affect their decision-making about the repertoire they program for students in high school. This paper reports the changes made by two NSW High School to their music programs to enhance their teaching of Indigenous music and culture. These changes made significant connections to the community and local Elders. The schools are Bankstown Girls' High School and Ashcroft High School. We acknowledge the two music teachers, Marimar Salerno and Jasmin jones, for their vision and ongoing commitment to implementing programs for their students that respect and value Indigenous music.
