CREATING A YARNING CIRCLE What is a yarning circle

Building a yarning circle is a great way to create a space that is inviting and connects children to the outdoors. This space can be used to yarn about important issues in an informal setting, and to learn more about the Cultural practices and teachings of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. For First Nations people, the yarning circle was and still is an important place to conduct business, talk about issues in the community or on Country, and have a space where all voices are recognised and heard.
