This book is the outcome of a Writer's Workshop conducted by the Nanum Wungthin Training Centre at Napranum, Weipa, in May 1997. The students involved were all of Aboriginal or Islander descent and most had been born in the area. Peter Delbridge, head of the training centre, organised the workshop and arranged for our visit.. The aim of the workshop was to involve the students in the writing and production of a small book that would present a picture of Weipa through the eyes of its original inhabitants.
