There’s a Mud Crab in the Mangroves (song)
The students also learnt the words for mud crab, koala, turtle and mangroves, to be used in the song called ‘There’s a Mud Crab in the Mangroves’ created by Faith Baisden 2018. Faith Baisden also provided the music. The words were translated by Sandra Delaney and Robert McLellan. 
The children had fun creating mud crabs, koalas and turtle character puppets to use as props in the song. Their teacher (Mrs Kirchner) created the mangroves. They had lots of fun trying to pronounce the Jandai words and performing the actions to the song.
