Noongar Words
Our students have been learning an Aboriginal word from the Noongar Language each week to celebrate Aboriginal Culture. The Noongar Language is the spoken language of the Aboriginal people from the Southwest region of WA.
• Daat nyin (means “sit down”) Eg. “I tell my dog to daat nyin before I give him a treat.”
• Warangka (means “sing”) Eg. “I love to warangka in the choir.”
