Hi Memrise users,

I am a learner and the course creator of the Kaurna course on Memrise. Kaurna is a South Australian indigenous language belonging to the indigenous people of the Adelaide Plains. Previously, the language has been classified as almost extinct, referred to as a sleeping language; extensive efforts have been established to revive it and success has been made! The language belongs to the Kaurna people and the group at KWP (Kaurna Warra Pintyanthi). The organisation has an array of resources and materials; it is highly encouraged to check them out and support them via these links below :
