beginning of cross-strait issues. However, it wasn’t until 1992 when George Bush Senior decided to announce that the United States would sell D-15 fighter jets to Taiwan. This action caused cross-strait tensions to reach an all time low between Taiwan, China, and the United States.

Partnerships are critical with all children, parents and carers, and it should be no different if they are Aboriginal. According to (Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Education Action Plan 2010 – 2014) 45% of Aboriginal parents and carers believed that the inclusion of community role models and mentors is critical. Involving Elders, parents and carers in school activities and decision making leads to a

reflection is essential to students’ learning in working with culturally different communities (Whitney & Clayton, 2011), such as the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. It allows students to focus on individual responses to an event, carefully scrutinise own personal values and acknowledge their impact on future practice in cross-cultural settings (D’Gruz, Gillingham, & Melendez, 2007).

Magellan’s expedition, and his ambitious voyage around the world provided the Europeans with far more than just spices.
