Bringing Aboriginal culture into the classroom

They're educating the educators hoping it will lead to better learning for Aboriginal children. The Campbelltown Aboriginal Education Consultative Group, the local arm of a non-profit advisory body, held its first ``cultural immersion'' training for teachers last week.
A group of 25 teachers from Campbelltown schools took part in the three-day program, which aims to close the achievement gaps between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal students. Consultative group vice-president and assistant principal at Rosemeadow Public School, Tammy Anderson, said if teachers couldn't connect with Aboriginal children they couldn't do their job.
