Tjulpu and Walpa: Tjulpunya munu Walpanya, Tjitji Kutjara Iwara Kutjara by NPY Women's Council
This is the story of two girls: Tjulpu and Walpa.
It is the story of two children who end up travelling down very diferent roads.
Tjulpu is the bird that sings. Tjulpu's story is about a girl who had all the love and support she needed to grow up strong, healthy and happy. Walpa is the wind. Walpa's story is about a girl who was blown around from place to place - just like the wind.
These stories show us how the care we give a child shapes their behaviour. It helps us to see that behaviour is like an anthill. We can see the anthill rising up, but there are other things - like children's experiences and their needs - hidden beneath the surface.
