On Tuesday, we joined the primary school in the church to celebrate Easter and the resurrection of Jesus.  The liturgy was presented by the Year 1 children. The Lobster class enjoyed a wonderful interactive presentation by Ryka Ali , an indigenous performer who shared indigenous music, dance and stories and of course played the didgeridoo. Ryka’s heritage stems from the Wuthathi tribe of Shellburne Bay, Cape York and from the Torres Strait Islands.
