Kaya, my name is Bonnie Walley and I am a Nyungar yoga with connections to the Wadjuk Balladong and Yued language groups. I’m in my third year Social Work at Curtin and I’m the 2026 first Nations representative with the Guild.
Throughout my studies at Curtin I have experienced cultural safety gaps and been present in classes where outdated or inaccurate information is used within curriculums to deliver content surrounding Aboriginal and Torres Stair Islander peoples. I plan to use my position with the Guild to influence and advocate for culturally safe classrooms and curriculums that are embedded in truth telling. I want to reduce the colonial load our students are experiencing, and encourage a two way learning system.
If you have any questions or suggestions, please reach out by messaging this account, emailing me at [email protected] or through this accounts ‘feedback’ highlight.
Additionally, if you are a current Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander Curtin Uni student, I encourage you to join the First Nations Collective through the link in my bio. This collective gives us a voice in addressing issues affecting us, and also provides a safe space for us as mob to come together and connect 🖤💛❤️
