Making of a Hoodie Podcast

Welcome back to Making of a Hoodie. This episode weaves through conversations about what it means to be a Global Ambassador of Equality and how we pass down deep knowledge from one generation to the next. Jack Manning Bancroft digs deep into the critical conversations with Steph Beck, Eddie Uini, Nia Lewis, Menaka Wijesinha, Aston Hawkins-Nicholls, and Abby Prades.We ask you to take off your shoes, find a quiet corner in nature, and feel the ground with your bare feet. Come with us as we lean into Indigenous systems thinking. What is a Global Ambassador of Equality? What is IMAGI-NATION{University}? And how can we change systems to leave a strong impact and lasting legacy for humanity?

For this episode of The Making of a Hoodie Podcast: Schools, we’re travelling to Blacktown, to celebrate a school, and the staff and students who make it such a special place. Coreen School, Coreen is an Aboriginal word meaning 'the last of the hills'. Coreen School is a powerful example of a school committed to support their students in all their needs. The teachers are mentors who not only are there for their students' academic endeavours but also strive to create an environment that supports their wellbeing. How can kids get equal opportunities no matter their needs? The stories are about the teacher's approach to every kid with respect and their work to help the students build confidence for when they leave school, they leave without doubting themselves.Join the staff & students as they design their school uniform hoodie and take us through their school story, embracing our shared history & their hopes for the future. 

For the first-ever episode of Making of a Hoodie, we wanted to celebrate some very special heroes.
