Kuranda District State College students, some as young as 7, have illustrated a Dreamtime story - written in English, Italian and Djabugay - that has been published in Florence as part of a school project.
"This is absolute gold to us", school principal Gary Toshach said. Lycia Erwin, 10, a Djabugay girl, is amazed at how easily the stories of her people translate. "It is bellissimo", she laughed.
