Essendon joined forces with Hawthorn Football Club and Balywn Auskick to host Christine Puruntatameri, Paulinus Tipungwuti and Tristan Dixon.
The trio was chosen from Tiwi College as a reward for good behavior and consistent attendance at school.
The five-day visit included a visit to the famous Windy Hill to watch a training session, a tour of the club’s facilities and the chance to meet two of Essendon’s indigenous stars Courtenay Dempsey and Nathan Lovett-Murray.
Also included in the visit was a visit to a local school, playing on Etihad Stadium at half time of Friday night’s match against Hawthorn and a very popular visit to Melbourne Zoo.
The AFL Auskick Remote Exchange has been running for several years and the Essendon Football Club is a proud supporter and contributor to the program.
