A massive thank you to all our partners who continue to support the Goanna Academy and help us bring programs like this into communities.

And to our Goanna Academy Ambassadors β€” thank you for sharing your stories and inspiring the young people of Dubbo to become resilient, respectful and strong members of their community.

Before we step into community, we listen. 🦎

Whenever the Goanna Team visit a community, it’s important to first sit down with local Elders β€” to listen, learn and understand what’s happening on Country and within the community.

In Dubbo, we were grateful for the opportunity to yarn with local Elders, hear their perspectives and have meaningful conversations about the challenges, strengths and hopes of the local Aboriginal community.

Thank you to the Elders who welcomed us, shared their knowledge and helped guide the conversations that shape the work we do.

MENTAL HEALTH MONDAYS 🦎

Whose in your corner?

Having a good circle of people around you can make all the difference β€” family, friends, teammates, workmates or someone you trust.

People you can talk to, lean on and reach out to when things get tough.

Sometimes asking for help can be hard, but having someone in your corner is a good place to start.

MENTAL HEALTH MONDAYS

Your happy place doesn’t have to be somewhere you go.

It could be a walk with someone you love, time with family, getting outside, playing sport, listening to music β€” whatever helps you slow down and feel good.

What’s yours? πŸ‘‡
