Thank you, Uncle Bixks Harlz , for taking us out on the river to catch fish. It was a great day on the water, and a special milestone for Lennox, throwing a cast net and catching some big mullet up the river. Experiences like these help pass on valuable skills, knowledge, and culture to the next generation. We were able to share our catch amongst families and eldersπŸ’™

We recently undertook a heritage tour with Nana Tass, who generously shared her personal story of growing up in the region. She spoke about living off the land and river, and her childhood years attending school. Nana Tass spoke about the many memories of growing up in Balnagowan.

It was remarkable to see that a few of the original structures remain standing after all these years, offering a tangible connection to the past. The strength, resilience and culture that has been shared with in our families we are deeply thankful that it has passed on to our young boys.

This was a great opportunity for the Soulwata Balaz to reflect of where they are today because of our elders.

The tour concluded with a special accordion performance by Nan, followed by lunch by the river.

Over Easter, the Soulwata Balaz got out and learnt a lot β€” fishing structures at night, working the creeks, understanding where fish sit with the tides, and how to find mullet. They ended up getting onto some nice mullet, a few queenies, and even picked up some crabs. Best part was being able to take some seafood home and share a feed with the elders and family.
