The Sangora Education Foundation

The Sangora Education Foundation was established in 1991 to promote excellence in education, better understanding and cooperation between the people of Australia and those of other countries through education and learning, and opportunities for the study of society and culture through the provision of grants, awards and scholarships. I would like to thank the Sangora Education Foundation for awarding me the Language Teachers Award 2015. Lola Jones

Broome to Vancouver

This journey of sharing language knowledge starts in Broome, Western Australia. 
The  Yawuru  people are the traditional owners of the lands and waters in and around Rubibi (the town of Broome). I am from Carnarvon (Yinggarda country) and as a visitor in Yawuru country I am learning Yawuru language and culture.

Departing from Perth (Noongar country) on 5 October 2015 my first overseas experience will be in Victoria on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. Honouring the  Indigenous people of Vancouver Island — Coast Salish, Kwakwak’awaka and Nuu-chah-nulth and recognizing the presence of the Métis and Inuit peoples.
