FUNPARK: Multicultural Elders Lunch

The FUNPARK team, working alongside members of our FUNPARK Youth Leadership Committee, hosted a Multicultural Elders Lunch at Blacktown Arts Centre early this November for some of our First Nations and Pasifika Elders and leaders. This was the beginning of an important dialogue between young people and Elders from both of these prominent cultural communities in Mount Druitt. 

“Thank you for a great opportunity to listen to Uncle Greg, Uncle Wes and Uncle Danny. I do hope that we are able to listen to more of their stories as well as understanding more the culture.”

"I would also like to take this opportunity on behalf of Lola and myself to thank you and your team for organising the lunch with our Aboriginal Elders. It was an amazing, informative and educational experience and we hope that there will be more opportunities in the future to learn from our First People's stories."
