Yulu Burri Ba - Dancers of the sand and the sea. This initiative is to address current shortfalls in Indigenous Cultural opportunities as well as assisting attempts to preserve both land and culture. The beginning of an expanding base for opportunity in the Cultural/performing Arts industry, we hope the dance group becomes a stepping stone or building block for young people to shape their own destiny.

Dancin for health
Launcing NAIDOC for Wynnum area Health Services...
Jahleesha, Kevin, Mundanara, Garland, Kasai, Tiga, Reilly, Mathew, Patrick and Kaiyu joined staff and community members to celebrate NAIDOC. Today was a special performance for mob from Straddie as some of the families from Straddie work or support Health Initiatives and this was a good day to share with them some fun through dance.
From all the dancers thank you Sylvan and all the organisers for inviting us to take part in the days activities and to Kupmurri Delights for a deadly feed.

The Premier begins NAIDOC week with a bang
Our Kids danced in the big smoke in George street at the Government offices
and danced their hearts out. What a big trip, from the ferry, to the bus and back
again all 18 kids, Patty n Kaiyu. All the older ones did a good job of helping
with the younger ones. They know their stuff and had heaps of fun dancing,
had a big feed of crocodile, kangaroo and bush tucker, than had fun some more.
Thank you to all who helped make this day a deadly one to remember for all of us.

NAIDOC opens for 2010 in Brisbane
Last Sunday we rose early to get to musgrave Park for the official opening of BBrisbane's Celebrations. What a deadly day it was too. Nunka was with us, Kimmy, Matty, Patty, Tiga, Reilly, Kaiyu and Rosie all danced. Patty n Nunka did a smoking ceromony for the elders and there were speakers toaking about how NAIDOC began and who was involved. Another uncle spoke about how we need to be part of the grass roots, low key events around town as well as the Big days like Family Day. And questioned appointed leaders in the lime light as they are always absent from these events. Hhhhhhmmmmm....... Something for us all to think about hey. Their was a feed from Kupmurri delights and it was good to be with mob on the mainland again.
