Sydney - Create ILF

Night of the Nyingawi at Jessie River, written and illustrated by the Senior Young Women of Tiwi College.

After travelling over 3,000km from the Tiwi Islands to Sydney for our CREATE Initiative Program, proudly sponsored by Australia Post, the students spent three days working with ILF Ambassadors and Hachette Australia Books to bring their story to life.

Seeing them hold their finished book — and share a reading that filled the room with pride and joy — was truly unforgettable.

Congratulations to these incredible young authors, and thank you to Tiwi College, our Ambassadors and team, as well as Australia Post, and Hachette for making this moment possible.
