Laramba School became the hub for musical activity over the two weeks we spent in Anmatjerre country. The doors were opened to teaching middle school kids how to write a song, Sam Chen (Stream 2) joined the CAAMA team to work with these kids and inspired songwriting both the boys and girls classes. Student numbers were strongly bolstered by Will Cheesman’s (Stream 1) truancy wrangling, his morning visits to peoples houses and gentle persuasions towards attending school bumped up numbers and returned many kids that hadn’t been scene by the teachers for a while. Matt Hill (Stream 3) ran a very successful Music industry training program with many dedicated mature age strudents keen to upskill. photos and words by Matty Day CAAMA team leader
