Huffpost Australia NightingaleSitting in stunned silence as the credits role to close The Nightingale, I feel my 20 years of schooling may have missed a beat. The Nightingale is the story of Clare (Aisling Franciosi), a young Irish convict living in 1820s wild Tasmania. The film’s leading man Ganambarr agrees Indigenous history could have been more prevalent in Australian schools in the past. “The story and history of Australia hasn’t been told properly, fully or truthfully in schools or in the books of history,” he told HuffPost Australia. “I know everything about European history, we weren’t taught a lot about Australian history and I think that’s wild,” Hervey told HuffPost at the launch of Jan Logan’s Merindah jewellery collection.
