NAIDOC @ Hymba Yumba Independent School

Our Kambu Health Member Elders Group attended their first 2026 NAIDOC Event at the Hymba Yumba Independent School at Springfield.

It was exciting to see all the jarjums at the school doing traditional singing and dancing and enjoying themselves. They were Deadly too!

Our Elders were amazed at the arts and crafts work that the children from the school made and were selling to raise money for their upcoming excursion.

A few of our Elders bought some of their beautiful creations and proudly held them up for photos.

There were: earrings; coasters; canvas’s necklaces, bracelets, and fridge magnets.
🍽️: the choice of Curried chicken and rice or roast meat with salads and served with damper. The meals were delicious. πŸ˜‹

Our Elders enjoyed their day at Hymba Yumba and especially meeting up with family, friends, and old work mates.

Thank-You Hymba Yumba for inviting us on your special day, and a big shout out to thank-you to Aunty Vivian, the staff and all the children.

Well done, and we look forward to attending many more of your events.

NAIDOC Week 2026 is extra special this year. The theme is 50 Years of Deadly, marking five decades of celebrating Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, cultures and communities. For fifty years, NAIDOC themes have captured stories of survival, resistance, pride and culture, carried forward by generations of organisers, artists, activists and community members who refused to be silenced. This year, we celebrate that legacy and everything it represents.

Join Kambu Health’s NAIDOC week celebrations at Ferrari Park in Laidley for a fun-filled day for the whole family. There will be plenty of entertainment for the whole family to enjoy including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander dance troupes, kids activities, community service information booths, food and drinks, and plenty of stalls to browse.

🌈 Learning Through Play at Amaroo Kindergarten 🌈

At Amaroo Kindy, every single day is filled with opportunities for your little one to explore, connect, and grow, and it all happens through play. πŸ’›

Whether they're scooping and pouring at the sensory table, digging and building in the sandpit with their friends, or climbing and balancing in our risky play area, children here are learning in ways that feel natural, fun, and meaningful.

These everyday moments connect beautifully with the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF):
✨ A strong sense of identity β€” building confidence, resilience, and belonging through play and friendship
✨ A strong sense of wellbeing β€” active, hands-on exploration supports physical development, coordination, and calm
✨ Confident and involved learners β€” curiosity, problem-solving, and creativity come alive through real experiences
✨ Effective communicators β€” chatting, laughing, and sharing discoveries helps children find their voice

We believe children learn best when they feel safe, supported, and excited, and that's exactly what we create at Amaroo Kindy every day. 🌿

πŸ“© Enrolments are open now β€” Book a visit with Amaroo Early Learning and Development Centre (07) 3812 2258
