Abstract

Indigo Primary School is a large primary school located in a geographically isolated but large regional centre in Western New South Wales. Mining, tourism and pastoral industries characterise the economic activity of the region. Within the town is an established and active arts community. Aboriginal presence has been continuous and sustained. There are several Aboriginal organisations operating in the regional centre and its surrounds providing services in health, education, employment and housing, as well as land and heritage management.
