Cultural Camps & Cultural Education
We believe it is essential that Aboriginal people of all ages have the opportunity to connect with their traditional culture, language, and heritage. This connection strengthens identity, pride, and a sense of belonging, and ensures that Aboriginal culture continues to thrive.
By sharing and promoting Aboriginal culture across the wider community, we help build greater understanding, respect, and appreciation for the deep spiritual and cultural connection Aboriginal people have to land and water.
Cultural Retreats
Experience the richness of Aboriginal culture through our immersive retreats. Open to schools, businesses, and community groups, our programs offer meaningful learning about traditional knowledge, language, and connection to Country.
Build understanding, strengthen teamwork, and celebrate culture together.

Smoking Ceremony
Tharawal Local Aboriginal Land Council offers Smoking Ceremonies to cleanse, protect, and welcome people onto Country.
A Smoking Ceremony uses native plants to produce smoke that is believed to have spiritual and cultural significance — clearing away bad spirits, promoting healing, and connecting people to the land.
