Djeran season is here now,

With boola boola clouds, and rains (midjal)

Hey you fullas let`s make our Kwornts,

Make them safe and sound (safe and sound)

Moorditj moortung families busy at this time

For our kaarl we get all the wood, for cooking, warmth and healing

Djeran season is here now,

Kert kert koorl come on 

Noongar people were a busy mob, collecting all the wood,

Setting up winter camp 0h  0h  0h

The above song shared by Aunty Iris Woods has set the seasonal context for the start of Term 2 at Bush Kindy and Bush School.  Lots of collecting and sorting of kaarlboorn (firewood), our first fires for the season, stories of fire spirit and protocols for fire safety, preparing our kwornt (shelter) for the coming rains, discovering the wonders of the ancient clay harvested by Kristi from the deep earth, encountering the variety of our fungi friends in all their abundance, the return of flowing waters to our beautiful creek bed; the children have been kept very busy as we move towards the fullness of midwinter.
