told by Warren Foster

The YUIN-MONARO people have lived on the far south coast of New South Wales for thousands of years. Today, there is a Koori Village and Cultural centre based around Wallaga Lake. Warren Foster wants to keep his culture alive and here he explains the significance of storytelling. Warren represents the next generation of storytellers, passing on the stories of his people.
