All are welcome to attend a function hosted by Gilbert and Tobin, Solicitors for Gunawirra, from 5.30-7.30pm on Thursday 6th May 2010 at 2 Park Street Sydney.

A new book called ‘Let’s Go To Pre-School’, for Australian Indigenous pre-schoolers and their parents, is to be released at a cocktail party on 6th May at the Gilbert and Tobin office in the Sydney CBD.

Your entry fee donation of $50 will support distribution of the book to an indigenous child and family.

Norma Tracey, Program Director of the not-for-profit organisation Gunawirra, says the new book will help more Aboriginal children enter pre-school. “It is widely reported and acknowledged that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are significantly educationally disadvantaged. This book, and the other work of Gunawirra, is part of a powerful community initiative to change that”.

Using beautiful photographs, ‘Let’s Go To Pre-School’ follows three Aboriginal children, Kiara, Noah and Sharon as they play and learn through a typical pre-school day.

The author of the book is Rebecca Gorman who will speak about its background at the function on 6th May.
