Radio Rawa

An exciting new addition to school resources at Rawa Community School is the Broad casting in Remote Aboriginal Communities System (BRACS).  This system allows the school to broadcast radio shows all around Punmu Community. 

Radio Rawa is already proving to be a fun and effective learning resource for students, as they write promos, play songs and interview special guests.  Students Amos Simpson and McKenzie Rogers, assisted by their teacher Kathryn Ferguson recently interviewed the new Pilbara Manager of the Department of Indigenous Affairs Kevin Caton.  Kevin was a great subject to interview because, as well as talking about his new job, he used to be an AFL footballer, and told the community about playing for the Eagles!  If you’re ever travelling through Punmu make sure you tune in to 105.9 FM on your radio dial for Radio Rawa!
