Q1. A didn't really understand the history of the First Australians, but I got to see their side of the story, not just the English. The pictures helped and the historians were good and explaining their point of view. I felt sorry for the Indigenous people. Q2.I would describe it as a story not just from the English, but from the Indigenous folk as well. It was inspiring and stirring.
 * THE FIRST AUSTRALIANS****-**

Q3. I think that the message was that everyone, no matter what race should be treated as equals.

Q4. This episode is like no other.


 * LANGUAGE**

Q1.


 * Colonist - A settler in or an inhabitant of a colony
 * Settlers - A person who settles in an area usually with no or very few inhabitants
 * Invaders - Of an armed force and it's commander enter a country or region without permission to occupy
 * British - of or relating to Great Britain or the United Kingdom, or to it's people or language
 * Whites - belonging to a human group having light coloured skin (mostly European)

Q4. I think the best definition is Invaders.

Q5. The English probably saw themselves as settlers rather than invaders. But for the Indigenous People, they would have seen the English as Invaders of their own country.

Q6.


 * Aborigines - an aboriginal inhabitant of Australia
 * Indigenous inhabitants - Originating or occurring naturally in a particular place
 * First Australians - the first people to inhabit Australia
 * Australians - a native or Australia, or a person of Australian decent
 * Tribal or clan - a group of close-knit and interrelated families

Q9. I think the most appropriate and accurate definition is Indigenous inhabitants because it is the most correct.


 * Reconciliation.**

Q1. Keating is saying that the English/Non-Australians introduced many bad things that are a problem today Q2. How do you respond to these claims? I believe that what he is saying is true. I mean the things that the English brought over are still a problem today. Q4. We should accept the past and do the best we can in the future. There is no point dwelling on the past because we can’t change it now.

 * WILLEM JANSZOON -**

Hey how are you? I am Willem Janszoon. My vessel, the Duyfken (Dutch for the Little Dove),was the first Dutch vessel known to have visited part of the Australian coast and the islands of New Guinea. My yacht, commanded by me, was actually in Torres Strait in March 1606, a few weeks before Torres sailed through it. But our provisions ran short, and nine of my crew were murdered by natives, who were found to be 'wild, cruel, black savages';so my //Duyfken// did not penetrate beyond Cape Keer-weer (also known as Cape Turn-again), on the west side of the Cape York Peninsula. Duyfken's captian, me, returned in the belief that the south coast of New Guinea was joined to the land along which he coasted, and Dutch maps reproduced this error for many years to come. I'm 60 years old, single and looking for love.I like walks on the beach, hanging with my crew and i don't care what you think about me, I want to shout out to all my friends, they know who they are!!!. If you wanna chat more, add me - you won't be sorry. will.jansz@hotmail.com come on - you know you want to.
