Staying connected in the shadow of the pandemic

"I survived COVID-19 by fishing. Because I fish alone. This pandemic has not affected me. I like my fishing. I try and go when I can. The free fishing guide is a great place to start learning about local fishing."

Maree uses resourcefulness and determination to address her literacy challenges

"I’m getting there. I’m not down here anymore… but I want to get up the top. It might take me six, twelve months… but I don’t care. As long as I get to where I want to go.”

Acknowledgement of Country

26Ten recognises the deep histories and cultures of the Aboriginal people of Lutruwita/Tasmania, the land’s first storytellers. We acknowledge Tasmanian Aboriginal people as the traditional and continuing custodians of the land, waters and sky. We pay respect to the Elders, past and present, who hold the memories, traditions, culture and knowledge of Country. We extend our respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, whose Countries were never ceded.
