ARDS DVD Projects

Community Partner - Aboriginal Resource & Development Services (ARDS)

In partnership with Anglicare NT and the Communities for Children Project, Aboriginal Resource and Development Services are building resources for Family and Parenting Skills.

Promotional material and programs are being developed to provide families and parents access to information about health, nutrition, child development and other related subjects aimed at improving skills to better support children in their early years. The information is provided in Yolngu Matha (Yolgnu language) and is subtitled in plain English.

Topics already produced as DVD’s and radio programs that are now available are:

Gulanbuy dalkunnawuy weyika – Blood Strengthening Element (The Iron Story)
Djamarrkuli Raypirri (Childhood Discipline)
Watupuy Dhawu (The Dog Story)
Post natal care – use of baby weight charts
