We respectfully acknowledge the Wurundjeri People of the Kulin Nation, who are the Traditional Owners of the land on which the ACTF is based and pay our respect to their Elders past and present.
We are honoured to have the opportunity to learn from the oldest cultural storytellers in the world and seek to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander practitioners to share their rich culture and perspectives with children in Australia and around the world via stories on screen.
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people should be aware that this website may contain images, voices or names of deceased persons in photographs, film, audio recordings or text.
As a class, watch another early episode of Round the Twist and read the corresponding story by Paul Jennings, or reflect on ‘Skeleton on the Dunny’ again.
Have students discuss why certain elements may have been adapted or changed for television. Consider the intended audience, constraints within the different mediums, and narrative structure. Invite students to suggest alternative approaches for the episode and to explain their reasoning to peers.
