Singing for our Little Ones, the Warumungu children’s album, is part of a powerful cultural project keeping the Warumungu language alive
With the language considered severely endangered, these songs – created by Warumungu language custodians and Dr. Shellie Morris AO – celebrate Country, language and culture, ensuring future generations can learn, sing and connect.
Singing for Our Little Ones was born from the shared vision of a ‘dream team’ of passionate mothers, grandmothers and respected Tennant Creek community members along with Dr. Shellie Morris AO. Brought together by Connected Beginnings Tennant Creek, these women collaborated to write and record songs celebrating the landscape, animals and language. Their hope is to inspire strong, proud little ones and encourage other communities to celebrate and preserve their own languages through music.
Join in this special celebration of voices of Country and songs for the future.
