The Wanjoo Big Sing

Do you know the Wanjoo Song? Maybe you’ve learned it at school, or play group, or even seen it on Play School?

Wanjoo is a fantastic way of learning some Noongar language and a great reminder that the AWESOME Festival takes place in Boorloo (Perth), which is Whadjuk Noongar Country.

 In partnership with AWESOME Festival, Gina and Guy warmly invite you to join them for The Wanjoo Big Sing at the Heath Ledger Theatre.

Tune up your tonsils and join them to sing this beautiful song and be part of a 500-voice singalong that celebrates Noongar language and culture.
