Break Thru NAIDOC Week Celebrations - Liverpool
NAIDOC Week celebrations began for the Liverpool Break Thru People Solutions team by attending the NAIDOC Ball, where Kevin, Vicky, Ponnamma, Anngret, Gail and I met Jack Johnson and many other like minded people. All of whom spoke of a journey from days past to a wonderful presence.
We were enchanted by the traditional and contemporary dancers and continued to be influenced with the incredible skills of the didgeridoo musician and contemporary music by the Donavan family.
With all your help we were able to have a fantastic day at Campbelltown, connecting the March and the fun day with AES ensuring our Liverpool relationships grow and develop in the Campbelltown District. Whilst Rita, and Rhidima worked on the Store and Grace videoed the event Vicky and I learnt how to make friendship bracelets and participated in some hand painting.
Lastly we have been able to complete our NAIDOC Celebrations with Jack Johnson’s Welcome to Country - his story of a journey from the 1800’s through his troubled youth, growth and personal experiences in leading and developing a not for profit company into positive business followed by Uncle Steve Williams conducting the Smoking Ceremony and cleansing our building - providing positive energy to all.
These events are successfully because of all of you, our Staff, our Clients and our Upper Management - including poor Ross who wasn’t well enough to attend. Noel from the Board of Directors who was kind enough to jump in and lend a hand Martin and Peta who participated and Danielle who I asked to close the event.
Thank you to you all for ensuring that our clients, employers, tenants, and community providers were all involved, and thank you to each of you for supporting this important event.
Lastly thank to each of you who helped on the day and on the days prior in the organizing and behind the scene preparation.
