QUEANBEYAN NAIDOC COMMUNITY DAY

Part 4 of 4 — The Community Who Came Together 🖤💛❤️

And finally, our biggest thank you goes to you — our community.

Thank you to everyone who came along to our September Community NAIDOC Day at Queanbeyan Park.

Thank you to the families who brought the kids, the Elders who joined us, the friends who came along together, the locals who stopped by, and everyone who took the time to spend part of their day with us.

Thank you for the conversations, the laughter, the dancing, the questions, the connections and the shared moments.

Days like this are about more than an event on a calendar. They are about bringing people together, sharing culture, creating connections and celebrating community.

We were so proud to see people from across the community come together to celebrate with us.

From all of us at the Ngambri Local Aboriginal Land Council — thank you for showing up, joining in and helping make the day so special.

Culture. Community. Country. 🌿

QUEANBEYAN NAIDOC COMMUNITY DAY

Part 3 — The People Who Brought the Day to Life 🎶💃🏾

What is a celebration without music, performance and storytelling?

A huge thank you to all of the talented performers who joined us for our September Community NAIDOC Day and helped fill Queanbeyan Park with music, culture and good energy.

Your performances helped create the atmosphere that made the day so special — bringing people together, encouraging people to stop, listen, dance, enjoy themselves and connect.

We are incredibly grateful that you shared your talents with our community and helped us celebrate culture, connection and Country.

To everyone who took to the stage, picked up an instrument, shared a song, danced or entertained the crowd — thank you for being part of our day.

QUEANBEYAN NAIDOC COMMUNITY DAY

Part 2 — The People Who Shared Their Work 🛍️🌿

Our September Community NAIDOC Day wouldn't have been the same without the wonderful local businesses, organisations and stallholders who came along and shared their services, products and passion with our community.

To every vendor who set up a stall, spoke with community members, answered questions, shared information, sold their beautiful products or simply helped create such a welcoming atmosphere — thank you!

Events like this are about creating opportunities for people to connect, discover local services, support small businesses and celebrate the incredible people and organisations that make our community what it is.

Thank you for giving up your time to be part of our day and for helping make it such a success. The smiles said it all!

We appreciate you all! 🖤💛❤️

QUEANBEYAN NAIDOC COMMUNITY DAY

Part 1 — The People Who Made Our Day Possible 🌿

The Ngambri Local Aboriginal Land Council would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Queanbeyan-Palerang Regional Council, Aunty Matilda and our incredible Yurwang Mura Rangers for helping make our September Community NAIDOC Day such a wonderful celebration of culture and community.

A very special thank you to Aunty Matilda for welcoming everyone to Country and helping us begin the day in the right way — with culture, respect and connection.

Thank you also to Queanbeyan-Palerang Regional Council for supporting the event and helping bring our community together at Queanbeyan Park.

And of course, a massive thank you to our Yurwang Mura Rangers and Yurwang Mura Junior Rangers. From setting up, conducting a smoking ceremony, helping in the elders tent and many other tasks throughout the day, our Rangers were an integral part of the event.

It takes a team to bring an event like this together, and we are incredibly grateful to everyone who contributed their time, energy and support.

Thank you for helping us celebrate culture, community and Country. 🖤💛❤️

🌿 World Ranger Day 2026 🌿

Today, 31 July, Ngambri LALC proudly joins communities around the world in recognising World Ranger Day.

World Ranger Day honours the courage, dedication and sacrifice of rangers across the globe. It commemorates those who have lost their lives or been injured while protecting our natural and cultural heritage, while celebrating the vital work undertaken every day by rangers on Country.

Rangers are the frontline guardians of our environment and cultural landscapes. They care for Country, protect biodiversity, preserve cultural heritage, support threatened species, undertake fire and land management, and share knowledge that has been passed down through countless generations.

Today, we extend our deepest gratitude to our Yurwang Mura Rangers Yurwang Mura Junior Rangers whose commitment to Caring for Country is helping build a stronger future for our community. We are incredibly proud of the work they do and the positive impact they are already making.

We also acknowledge and thank all Aboriginal Rangers, National Parks Rangers and conservation professionals across Australia and around the world for their dedication, resilience and service.

If you see a Ranger today, take a moment to say thank you.

Happy World Ranger Day.
