A safe space for Filipinos who are living in Sydney, Australia, to connect, learn and share about their lived experiences, culture and have a sense of belonging. BAYANIHAN (Tagalog term derived from the term ‘bayan’ meaning community) is a grassroots Filipino community group led by a collective of Filipinos who are living in Western Sydney, Australia. The collective was recently formed by Western

Sydney University’s Mental Health & Wellbeing Unit, Western Sydney University Filipino Student Society, The Western, Mosca Media Australia and the key members include:

• Moera Tufunga (Western Sydney University’s Mental Health & Wellbeing Unit and founder of Master Management)
• Ian ‘Esky’ Escandor (Independent artist and counsellor at The Street University, Mount Druitt)
• Laura Ranola (The Western and counsellor at The Street University, Mount Druitt)
• Jacob Laurel (Western Sydney University Filipino Student Society)
• Elisha Tulay (Social Work student at Western Sydney University)
• Liza Moscatelli (Multidisciplinary artist, academic at Western Sydney University and founder of Mosca Media Australia)

The group will be meeting monthly launching on Monday 28 February 2022 at Opn.Src (a community and multipurpose space), Glenndenning. The aim of the group is to reconnect to our cultural roots, bring people from the Filipino diaspora together giving us the opportunity to build connections, a stronger sense of belonging, foster our collective well-being, provide resources and support for those who struggle with mental health, provide a safe space for community to express themselves and share their experiences of being Filipino living in Western Sydney. Some of the themes that the group will cover are culture, identity, mental health, community and other relevant topics raised by participants through our monthly meetings.

Bebot Barkada highlights at .syd
• Aktibo Run Club- We finished right before the rain arrived 😁 then treated ourselves to the complimentary spicy but soothing salabat drinks🥤
• Food & drinks: aka the “we’re just here for the snacks” agenda (confirmed successful)
• Music + Kwentuhan: DJs & Mason Kimber keeping the vibes vibin’, plus karaoke and lots of chit chats
• Reading corner 📚: books about Filipino culture and the Philippines 🇵🇭 for the curious minds 🧐
• Cultural + creative pop-ups upstairs:
Aktibo Run Club, On Sundays We Play, Magenta House Shop, ANTHILL, Bottomfeeder, Ate Louise Paints Faces, Tropical Features Institute and so much more!
• Familiar faces + new friends: the best kind of “catch-up”

Overall, it was such a nourishing, enriching day—with big good vibes, community warmth, amazing talent, and enough food/drinks to properly keep our bellies happy. All to celebrate our Filipino culture in the diaspora.

Thank you .redfern and all the volunteers for putting this on-we had so much fun! 🤩

🇵🇭 Join us for a special film screening of HENERAL LUNA and enjoy a powerful evening of Filipino history, drama, and action on the big screen

This 2015 historical action film, directed by Jerrold Tarog, tells the gripping story of General Antonio Luna as he leads the revolutionary army during a defining moment in Philippine history. As the country faces a new struggle for independence after Spanish rule, Luna remains fiercely committed to the cause, even as conflict grows within the newly formed government.

The film explores themes of bravery, leadership, loyalty, and betrayal, and follows Luna’s intense journey as he battles both external and internal opposition. With its strong performances and compelling storytelling, Heneral Luna is a memorable film experience you won’t want to miss.
Come along, bring your friends, and share in a meaningful evening of film and community.

FILM DETAILS
Title: Heneral Luna
Director: Jerrold Tarog
Starring: John Arcilla as General Antonio Luna, Mon Confiado as President Emilio Aguinaldo, and Epy Quizon as Apolinario Mabini.

Presented by Bayanihan Sydney, in collaboration with the Philippine-Australian Community Services Inc. and The Filipino Saturday School.

Hello everyone! We hope your Easter long weekend was full of good vibes, good rest, and maybe a little too much chocolate 🍫 🐣

We’d love to have you join us for future adventures with our little walking group — think strolls, day trips, and a good excuse to get out and about in good company. If you’d like to join in or stay updated, send us a DM 📥

What a fantastic morning! 🌞 Our very first Bayanihan Walking Group kicked off today at the beautiful Nepean River — and what a meaningful start it was!

This wasn’t just any walk — it was our Bonifacio Day Walk, commemorating Andrés Bonifacio, one of the Philippines’ national heroes 🇵🇭. Every 30 November, Filipinos celebrate his birth — honouring Bonifacio, the Father of the Philippine Revolution, whose bravery and leadership ignited the nation’s fight for freedom.

We strolled a breezy 6.5 km surrounded by good vibes, familiar smiles, and some lovely new faces. Halfway through, we recharged with a quick stop at Emu Hall for some well-earned drinks, then wrapped it up with a delicious bite at The Coffee Club Nepean River 🍽️☕

We’re planning to make this a monthly tradition, so if you’d love to join our next walk in February (date TBC), send us a DM! We’ll add you to our WhatsApp and FB Messenger groups so you can stay in the loop.

Got a great walking spot in mind? Drop your suggestions below — we’d love to explore new trails together!

Wishing everyone a joyful holiday season and can’t wait to walk into the new year with you all! ❤️👟
