Torres Strait Islands Dances of Djarragun College

 Next

Young girls from Djarragun College perform dances from Murray Island in the Torres Strait, accompanied by singing and drumming during the awards ceremonies at the school. The girls, in long dresses with a skirt of pandanus leaves, march in and sing and dance; toward the end a girl runs up and does what seems like a mocking dance; this, however, is a way to show her appreciation and encouragement.
