Our story
From Ngadju Country, to you.
Ngadju Dancers are Ngadju people from Norseman and the southern Goldfields of Western Australia. For 30 years we have carried our dances, stories and ways of living to schools, workplaces and communities.
Our Country
Salmon gums, granite, salt lakes and red earth
Ngadju Country stretches across the southern Goldfields around Norseman and takes in much of the Great Western Woodlands, one of the largest temperate woodlands left on Earth.
Our dances, stories and language come from this land. When we perform, we bring a piece of Country with us.
Culture isn't something you read about. It's something you take part in.
Why we do this
Keep culture strong
Every performance passes dances and stories to the next generation of Ngadju dancers.
Build understanding
Students and staff learn directly from Aboriginal people, not from a textbook.
Walk together
Respect and reconciliation grow from real relationships, one school and one team at a time.
Opportunity for our young people
The troupe gives young Ngadju dancers pride, skills and a stage.
