A welcome song, Keriba ged nor e (Babana) is sung by women beating snake-skin drums and boys from Djarragun Colleg perform the traditional ''Kab Kar'' dances from Murray Island in the Torres Strait depicting daily life in the islands: Naigai Kawa (Looking for fish) and Sambai ba (Finding the fish and scooping them up). They dance in pairs, wearing the feather ''dhari'' headdress.
