As part of Reconciliation Week, representatives from Sydney Airport met with Jamie and Alan from our language team.

The group participated in a language program presentation, where they learned about the Gujaga Foundation, Dharawal culture, and our language program.

To finish, the group took part in language activities designed to test their knowledge and build familiarity with Dharawal words.

Today, the NSW DPIE team had the opportunity to immerse themselves in Dharawal culture, taking part in language activities, workshops, and learning about local history.

The team took part in a walk and talk, run by our cultural experiences team members, David and Bradley, walking around La Perouse, and learning the history of the area.

Later, the group met with .km where they participated in a native plants workshop.

After their excursion, the kids came back together to build on what they learned by taking part in an artefact‑making workshop. This deepened their understanding of Dharawal culture and the significance of these practices being passed on.

Recently, Gujaga Foundation took Dharawal kids from the La Perouse Aboriginal Community on an excursion, hearing and seeing stories of significance to Dharawal people, and taking part in fun language games on the beach.

Days like these strengthen cultural identity and belonging for our young people.

This week, we proudly partnered with Briar Road Public School to celebrate NSW Aboriginal Languages Week.

The students from preschool to Year 6 were immersed in Dharawal language and cultural activities. This year’s theme, “Let Our Voices Fly”, resonates with our ongoing work to revitalise and share Dharawal language with the next generation.

Thank you to the Briar Rd Public School community for celebrating this week with us.
