The Pitta Pitta people from north central Queensland, have been collaborating with SharingStories since 2023.

Together, multiple projects have been developed to support community goals and the sharing of cultural knowledges, including important stories from Pitta Pitta Country. A series of films was produced exploring Life on the Station for young Aboriginal stockman, ringers and workers, The Min Min Lights and more.

Educational resources, including unit plans and activity sheets, have been developed to accompany these media projects and can be found on Jajoo Warrngara: The Culture Classroom. These educational resources are designed to support teachers in embedding First Nations perspectives across the curriculum.
