WELCOME TO COUNTRY, LOCAL CULTURAL KNOWLEDGE/TOUR, AND ACTIVITIES | Earlier this year in March we had the pleasure to meet some of the deadly young men and women from the Navy Indigenous Development Program. We started the day by Welcoming them to Country, walked Garabarra and shared some local Cultural Knowledge of the area and then finished the day teaching them some Spear and Boomerang Throwing.
