Thanks to Trisha Hodge for such an engaging morning on Sunday at our Indigenous Connections workshop. 30 people met on the beach, walked and talked together, learned together and even danced (like emus) together. We gained an appreciation of the length of time melukerdee people have lived here through Trish's timeline in the sand. We identified shells on the shore used to make exquisite traditional necklaces. We were shown plants to look out for to enjoy bush food along our coast. And we learned emu and eagle dances that left us exhilarated. A great morning of sharing knowledge and building community, topped off with refreshments. Thanks to all who came along. Our gratitude goes to Bendigo Bank for the financial support to make it happen @communitybankhuonvalley #bendigocommunitybank
