Mia, 
When I was in Alice Springs Australia the Arrente people were moving
that direction. I have no references for you but they were producing
in 1998 dual English and aboriginal language texts, with english on
one half of the page and Arrente on the other half. I don't know the
true spelling of the Arrente/Arrende.
