Dulcie Sharpe was born at Hamilton Downs and spent many years growing up there. Her mother was from Papunya and she is a Luritja speaker. Dulcie went to school at Kwale Kwale and says her happiest memories are playing every day after school in the bush and swimming when there was water. It was Dulcie’s grandmother, Old Laddie, who taught her everything about culture: how to find honey ants, bush tucker, dancing, language. Later Dulcie married and moved to the Yarrenyty Arltere Town Camp to raise her family. Dulcie has been coming to the Yarrenyty Arltere Learning Centre since 2000 when she helped set it up as a place for her community to get well again from the chronic social issues it was facing at that time. Dulcie wanted to create a safe place for the children and adults to find new pathways into the future by holding on strongly to culture and learning together.
