Spelling Aboriginal Names in English

The spelling of Aboriginal names in English was a difficult affair for local Aboriginals and Europeans, both of whom grappled to find ways of standardising names.

Saturday School of Community Languages

Public secondary school which operates only on Saturdays to give students the opportunity to study the language they speak at home, if a course in that language is not offered at their own school or college.
