These stories written by year nines are their version of a dreamtime story like those told in times of old by Aboriginal Australians. These people believe in a parallel universe, where the world was created, people can go on dreamtime quests, and they learn morals to live by. Stories from this place are told to subsequent generations in order to pass on knowledge gained. Our dreamtime stories were a creative writing task to explain 'why something is the way it is'. In response to this task, 9UN and 9BR have created some amazing legends relating the creation of a variety of things in our world.
