Description

J is for Junba was developed by Rona Goonginda Charles and Sally Treloyn as a resource to support teaching and learning through Junba in Ngarinyin language speaking communities.

Pansy Ngalgarr Nulgit provided Charles and Treloyn with sample sentences in Ngarinyin language for each word in the course of several sessions at Mangkajarda wetlands near Mowanjum. These sample sentences were then transcribed and translated by Pansy Ngalgarr Nulgit, Rona Goonginda Charles, Thomas Saunders and Sally Treloyn with assistance from Matthew Dembalali Martin. Francis Nunburrngu developed illustrations over several months.
