Mike's story

Mike shares his story about working with 26Ten and the positive changes it has made in his life.

Peter's award for adult literacy work

"Every step, that's a step forward. Even if it's two steps forward and one step back, every bit of progress goes toward building that person, and that's just a huge reward to see that."

Jasson's story as an adult learner

"I have really enjoyed being able to read the newspaper and so I am now able to talk to others about news articles I have read."

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.
