Wemba Wemba

This app is an introduction to the Wemba Wemba language of north-western Victoria, Australia. The content in this App was developed by Grade 1 students from the Swan Hill Primary School Wemba Wemba class of 2014, in partnership with the Victorian Aboriginal Corporation for Languages and the Victorian Aboriginal Education Association Inc.

With the use of this App, our community is able to learn the language of this country and connect further with our culture to strengthen the revival of the Wemba Wemba language.
