Uncle Wes shared stories of The Rainbow Serpent, How the Kookaburra Got His Laugh, and poems from his book Through Old Eyes.

Last week we had the honour of joining Dharug and local community for a walk on Country around the Parramatta North Precinct.

Covering 42 hectares of Burramattagal Country, the Parramatta North Precinct is a whole-of-government, major urban renewal initiative which is essential to enable the vision for the Westmead Health and Innovation District. A lot of important yarns were had on the day around how Country should be cared for and the ongoing healing process that's underway for mob who have connections to this place.

A big thanks to the teams at Property and Development NSW and Jiwah for the opportunity to connect with community on this important project.
