Production notes

Originally told by Agnes Irene Harrison, and now retold by her daughter Elaine Hanson. This story comes from Yuin country of Wallaga Lake on the South Coast of New South Wales.

This TV series consists of 91 episodes.

Over 1,000 schools across Australia purchased educational kits based on the first 39 episodes.

A children's animation series, The Dreaming tells of the journeys and the deeds of Spirit ancestors who made the trees, rocks, waterholes, rivers, mountains and stars, as well as the animals and plants, and whose spirits inhabit these features of the natural world today. The Dreaming stories have been passed down through thousands of years and have continued to tell Aboriginal people how they should behave, what is good and bad, and the history of their environment.
