Paint Your Own Boomerang Workshop Feedback

Prestons Public School has been working with Aboriginal Incursions for over three years, and the experience has been outstanding. The workshops are engaging, informative, and culturally enriching for our students. We have had the opportunity to experience a variety of workshops offered by the company and have been consistently impressed with the clear communication, knowledgeable facilitators, and meaningful outcomes. I will confidently continue to book all of our future First Nations workshops with Aboriginal Incursions.

Workshop FAQ's

How do I book Paint Your Own Boomerang?

Complete our Booking Enquiry form here, in which we request up to 3 of your preferred dates for the workshop and our office will respond with further details and options for your event.

What type of area do you need?

You will need to have one area of the school you will use that will comfortably fit the group/groups. Have the tables ready and protect the tables with disposable table cloth as this activity gets very messy!

Are photos and filming allowed?

Yes the school is welcome to take as many photos and film on the day for use of the schools memorabilia and folio only.

How much notice do you need in order to book?

The more notice you give us the better, however, we are able to service last minute bookings! Best approach is to call on 0403 313 829 if it’s a short turnaround request.

How would the day run if I have a school of 600 PAX students?

Firstly if there are 600PAX students participating in this experience we will ask you to divide the 600 into 7 groups, so there should be 85-86 PAX per group. We will ask that you keep the groups in their stages, however if you need to mix some stages to get even numbers then please do so. My educator should see 7 different groups and repeat his/her session 7 times. The student will participate in a 30-35 minute experience. So my educator will do 7 x 30-35 minute sessions.
