The 12th book published by Cherbourg’s Budburra Books<\/a><\/strong> was officially unveiled this week at a colourful (and tasty) launch at The Ration Shed.<\/p>\n

“Budburra’s Garden” takes children on a journey through an edible garden, learning about colours and colourful foods along the way.<\/p>\n

The idea is also to introduce young children (aged 3-5 years) to the healthy eating concept of \u201ceating a rainbow every day\u201d, ie eating foods of different colours.<\/p>\n

The launch was a fun-filled event, attended by local schoolchildren and their parents, other community members and elders.<\/p>\n

Many of the children had been involved in the art workshops which produced the illustrations for the book in co-operation with Cherbourg’s adult art group, the Yidding artists, who are long-term partners with Budburra Books.<\/p>\n

Cherbourg elder Aunty Grace Bond compered the afternoon and \u00a0Aunty Ada Simpson read \u00a0from the book.<\/p>\n

Budburra chairman Robert \u201cRocko\u201d Langton sang the song that goes with it (available as a free download from the Budburra Books website<\/a><\/strong>).<\/p>\n

Then it was time for the \u201cJunior Murri Chef\u201d competition.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Six teams of two children created one vegetable salad and one fruit salad each which were then presented to the guest judges: Sheree Strauss, from the Yurri Muntha Caf\u00e9, Jo Kemp from The Ration Shed, and Tarita Fisher from Cherbourg Community Health.<\/p>\n

The dishes were judged on taste, presentation and creativity, and prizes were awarded.<\/p>\n

All children at the launch received a free copy of the book, there were art activities guided by Robyn Langton and a \u201crainbow of food\u201d was devoured.<\/p>\n

The project was made possible by a donation from BP\u2019s Reconciliation Action Plan and a partnership with The Smith Family.<\/p>\n

Representatives from both BP and The Smith Family attended the launch and seemed impressed by the turnout and the community\u2019s enthusiasm for the book.<\/p>\n

Other partners during the development of the book were The Ration Shed, Cherbourg Community Health, Beverly Hand of www.mimburi.com.au<\/a><\/strong>, the Cherbourg Yidding artists, Ratartat Artists, and many community members and elders who contributed to the text and artwork.<\/p>\n

This is Budburra’s 12th book, but it’s the first since the group has set up away from Cherbourg State School.<\/p>\n
