Gondwana Indigenous Children’s Choir’s long-standing relationship with Cairns State High School is an integral part of the choir’s program. The choir and school proudly recognise the importance both play in each other’s culture.
“It’s the access to experiences that make most people take for granted nowadays – that’s what makes Gondwana so special. I really don’t think people understand how much our young Indigenous students gain from being part of the program.
I also don’t think people understand how expert and technical the choirs are. They are truly impressive artists.”
Christopher Zilm
Executive Principal

One of the most important core values of Gondwana Choirs is that of Accessibility. We believe that all our young people deserve the opportunity to participate in our programs and to perform at a professional level with the finest ensembles in the country.
The conduit for these affected choristers and their families is Gondwana Choirs Bursary Fund which is supported by personal giving and trusts and foundations. Each year, 100% of the Bursary Fund is distributed to successful applicants. Applications are considered by a Board-appointed panel consisting of Executive Director Bernie Heard, Board Member Karen Mundine (CEO, Reconciliation Australia) and the relevant program managers.
Gondwana Choirs is most grateful for the major contribution to the Bursary Fund from the Marian & E.H Flack Trust, enabling choristers to participate in Sydney Children’s Choir and National Choral School.
