Cockatoo Dreaming Community Year End Picnic Sunday 16th December, 2023 @11am

Girrahween Park, Wolli Creek Regional Park Earlwood

"I acknowledge all first Peoples of the beautiful lands on which we live and celebrate the enduring knowledge and connection to country. I honour the wisdom of and pay respect to elders past and present"

It is time to come together as a collective community and celebrate the End of 2023 in a Community Picnic.

Everyone is welcome!

It is my honor to be your guide on Bidjigal Country in our all-inclusive outdoor Cockatoo Dreaming Community Year End picnic. The Wolli Creek Regional Park is in my neighborhood and holds an Ancient Magic and Mystery. We will gather together to walk on country, listen, learn and share as my people have done for many thousands of years.

We will begin the day with an Acknowledgement of Country and traditional welcome. I will share with you some of the knowledge and wisdom that has been taught to me, handed down to me by my Elders. I can only ever share with you the learnings I have received on my path, from my journey and from my family and kin. We will take a walk-in nature and allow country to speak with us. Then we will gather to celebrate the end of the year and set some intentions for 2024.

We will begin at 11 am Sharp

Please bring a camping chair if you would like a chair otherwise, we will have mats to sit on.

Please bring something to share for our community picnic, there will be cutlery and plates available.

Please bring a gift we will donate for a child as a Christmas gift.

Please allow enough time to find a park and walk into the site at least 10mins. There are a few roads that lead into the park. Parking can be found in Fauna St Earlwood, View St Earlwood, Sutton Ave Earlwood and The Earlwood Shopping car park accessed from Joy Lane Earlwood.

"Dear Lynda

Bowing in gratitude to you for creating such a safe place for phenomenal healing to occur in us all.

For me there is a deep seated knot of fear around stepping in to my power and leaving the past behind-
a knot that simply unraveled and released last Sunday.

It’s given my spirit so much ease and room to breathe and create the new so I can’t thank you enough as
I’d been holding those tears and fears in for way too long ....st

Not any more!
