Following the February premiere of the Kids on Country documentary,  there has been even more interest in the program, and the incredible students who featured in the documentary.

Recently Warren and Katie from the Kids on Country team, along with students and teachers from Le Fevre High School were interviewed by Joy Lothian from Aboriginal Way, for its podcast and next publication.

The episode is a wonderful way to hear about the program and impact of the camps on young Aboriginal people, particularly the teachers' and students' perspectives.
