: Learning the Framework

If you had the opportunity to experience one of the best known indigenous education frameworks in Australia, then we would like to hear from you.

The holistic planning and teaching framework is the creation of Dr Ernie Grant and friend. It provides an insight into how indigenous people view their world i.e. holistically.

To gain a better understanding we employ you to undertake the workshop and come to a better understanding of aboriginal people in this country and the world.

Our programs are personally catered to suit your needs and outcomes. If you have any enquiries or need a personalised quote please email info@echocreek.com.au
