A group of school representatives attended Oura Oura, or yellow-tailed black cockatoo in the language of the area's Aboriginal people, to learn more about Australia's native inhabitants.

Each student from the school made a set of clap sticks and leaned choreography for a cultural dance, performed to parents, teachers and Bush Heritage representatives.

The dance was learned during a five-day hands-on program delivered by Craig Everett.

"[Craig] provided the students with a rich understanding of Tasmanian Aboriginal history and culture and directly links to many curriculum areas including history, geography, literacy, the arts, science and technology."

Bracknell Primary School principal Sharryn Crothers said the activities were somewhat ironic for her, due to previous teachings.

Mrs Crothers said she attended the school when she was younger and was explicitly taught that Truganini was the last Tasmanian Aboriginal.

"The Tasmanian Aboriginal community is strong, rich and diverse," Mrs Crothers said.

"It has been a school priority to provide opportunities for all learners, students, staff and parents, to deepen their knowledge of Tasmanian Aboriginal people by engaging with the world's oldest continuous culture in a such a real and relevant way."

Mr Everett works with all students from kindergarten to Grade 12.
