Description

Yurri’s Birthday Kit 2

Written by Sue Atkinson (Yorta Yorta) and illustrated by Annette Sax (Taungurung), Yurri’s Birthday is the third book in the Yarn Strong Sista series. This special story follows Yurri on her birthday, when friends arrive at midnight, each bringing a basket with a thoughtful gift. The beautifully illustrated baskets reflect the traditional art of basket coiling, created by Victorian women passionate about reviving this cultural practice. The story provides young children with insight into Indigenous Victorian culture, connection, and community.

This kit includes carefully selected resources to complement the story, supporting children to retell, role-play, and create their own versions of the narrative while exploring music, play, and cultural connections.
