Establishment Focus Questions

  1. While the 4th BPA Report is quite positive, it betrays the attitude of the day toward Aboriginal people. Describe this attitude using selections of the language in the report as your evidence.


  2. Try to place yourself in the position of the Aboriginal people at Coranderrk. How would you react to the rules which were placed I the school room?
