“Education is the key for Aboriginal people to take their rightful place in modern Australian society. Unless we rectify the imbalance in opportunities currently available, young Aboriginal people will continue to be frustrated and unable to develop their talents to make their rightful contribution to the economy and society….and we will all be poorer for that.”

Our purpose is to deliver culturally responsive academic enrichment ‘Follow the Dream’ programs for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students that develop knowledge, confidence and self-belief, inspiring students to achieve their school and career aspirations.

The Polly Farmer Follow the Dream program provides after school tuition and mentoring to aspirant Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander primary and secondary students. Students who desire to learn and succeed at school are invited to attend the program which is voluntary. Family and the local community have input and encourage students to attend through compact signing events. Extra curricular activities including career, leadership and cultural camps are offered to students who meet attendance and academic targets. Graduates are supported through our alumni program with access to career guidance and financial assistance
