Now that the painful and divisive debate over moving Australia Day/Survival Day to a less fraught date, or not, is over for another year, it is time for everyone to refocus on what is important for us all, which is a healthy, functioning society, full of caring, knowledgeable and respectful people. This is why the Early Years Learning Framework version 2 (EYLF v2) has such a strong focus on incorporating an Indigenous perspective.

Today is a special day for the Foundations Family Day Care community: it’s Indigenous Literacy Day! As a First Nations-owned service with a strong focus on building pre-literacy skills, this is an occasion that resonates strongly with us all. To celebrate Indigenous Literacy day, we’ve compiled a list of 18 of our favourite Indigenous titles for all ages. Find these at your local library or use the links below to add them to your own collection.
