Author Information

Thomas Higgs is a teacher living in Darwin. His undergraduate degree in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies gave him a foundation for building deep and meaningful connections with Aboriginal Australians. He believes all young people should learn about the history and culture of First Nations people and that collaborative storytelling such as this is integral to reconciliation. Colin Hall is an Alawa man from the Roper River region. He works at the Ngukurr Language Centre supporting the delivery of Kriol language courses and is also working to revive the endangered Alawa language of his ancestors. He assisted Higgs in the writing of Ayaiga's story through the inclusion of many Alawa and Kriol words. Wally Wilfred is a Wgilak man and artist living and working in the Roper River region, who works with the Ngukurr Art Centre. Wally brings together traditional techniques with bold and contemporary use of colour. Wally's work explores traditional and present-day culture with history and storytelling.
