| Summary: | Diverse cultures, beliefs, practices and ways of life define First Nations people in Australia. This chapter focuses on a single case study that captures the cross-cultural behaviors and experiences of Aboriginal Australian children (10–12 years) as they attend a local government school set within a culturally distinct community. It delves into the usefulness of ecological psychology and behavior setting theory for understanding how children’s behaviors are linked to place knowledge, beliefs and recognizable physical and sociocultural characteristics. Findings indicate that children’s experience of being within the school ground is unlike the experience found beyond the school gates. |
