Better Futures School Program
Over the past 6 months, Toby from Desert Pea Media has been working on the Better Futures Get Real @ Relationships program at Oberon High School, McKillop College and Kelso High in Bathurst NSW.
The program has been in partnership with Lisa Lantry from Enhance Consultancy & Training and focuses on image theatre and dialogue as a form to engage and challenge young people. The focus is on equipping young people with the tools to manage relationships and create a healthy environment for themselves and their community.
The program also incorporated a ‘Love Bites’ Day, which focuses on domestic and family violence prevention. This full day of workshops culminates in the production of a hip hop song and music video advocating awareness of domestic and sexual violence across all communities…

Aboriginal Justice arrives….
‘Aboriginal Justice’ is the product of a collaboration between Desert Pea Media, The Smugglers Of Light Foundation and three young people from Palm Island, North Queensland.
Written and produced in 2009 by Toby Finlayson and Matthew Priestley from Desert Pea Media - with Morris Walsh, Kiefer Walsh and Patrick Seaton. This track has been developed through a media mentoring project which started in 2004.
This song is a powerful commentary on the issues and emotions surrounding the death in custody of local man Cameron Doomadgee in 2004… The 3rd inquest is coming up, and this song is focused on raising awareness of the issues surrounding indigenous comunities nation wide.
‘Aboriginal Justice’ has been recomposed, produced and arranged by Nigel Westlake and also mixed and mastered by prominent Australian technicians.
Thanks to Kaos Music, Franki Goodwin, Bob Scott, Nigel Westlake, Xanon Murphy, The Bwlgcolman People and more…
