In 2025 it will be compulsory to teach First Nations history in New South Wales schools.

The Australian Museum education team has designed an education resource using our film Her Name is Nanny Nellie as a representation of First Nation perspectives. It can be used in the history classroom to help students understand and question historical narratives around First Nations people.

Yesterday we had the privilege to chat with teachers about using this amazing resource and answer any burning question they had. We are extremely honored at the opportunity for our film to be used to educate students and we want to thank Tim Chuan, Mariko Smith and Laura McBride for their support in making this happen.

Nanny Nellie would be proud of us all!

Santos’ plans for deep-sea drilling off the coast of the Tiwi Islands threatens future generations of First Nations people, impacting food sources, culture and way of life.

We were given a deep insight into the effects through our work with Market Forces and their campaign to expose Australian super funds' investment in Santos' projects.

We are continuing our work in this area and look forward to revealing what’s in development soon.

Capturing some cinematic aerial footage at the breathtaking Royal National Park on Dharawal Country. The dramatic coastal cliffs sure are fun to fly the drone around #nasho #dronefilming
