Abstract: Australia's Indigenous Languages are unique to our Nation. Since the irst sunrise these languages have been used, practised and maintained for generations, shaping our Nation into a proud, respected and celebrated country. These languages are an asset to the Nation and deserves the respect, appreciation and acknowledgement of the diversity, uniqueness and beauty they hold. Let us celebrate the First Languages of this country by doing two simple acts, by making Indigenous Languages visible, for all to see; and by learning to speak our languages with pride and purpose.
