Episode 10
1788: Waruwi
Waruwi is an Aboriginal girl looking after her Nana, while the rest of her extended family is away from camp. It’s just for a day, but what a day it turns out to be! First, there’s a huge, four-legged monster that even spooks Waruwi’s dingo, Lapa. Then, there’s a boy – a young soldier - banging loudly on a mysterious round thing (a drum, it turns out). And another soldier who makes agonised cries come out of a box with a handle (a hurdy-gurdy). And still more soldiers – ones that Waruwi’s Nana calls 'the walking grubs'. They’re looking for the four-legged monster, and their search is bringing them closer and closer to Waruwi’s camp and her annoying, adorable Nana. Outnumbered, Waruwi will have to use all of her wits to lead the soldiers away from her place.
