Echo Creek

Acknowledged for his life’s work.

He has run workshops right across the state of Queensland (and indeed in every other state) on a Holistic Planning and Teaching

Framework, which relates together Land, Language, Culture, conceptualised in terms of Time, Place and Relationships.  He has

worked on curriculum development, designed a Teaching and Learning Framework for teachers working with indigenous pupils, and given extensive support to School Support Centres.

Ernie Grant has also worked with the National Library in Canberra, with the Museum of South Australia and with the Tasmanian Education Department on matters of access and establishing cross cultural perspectives.

All in all, he has made an immense contribution to the North Queensland - and indeed, the entire Australian - community.
