19.01.2022 NAIDOC week is a really important week at Huskisson PS, this week the students will be talking about the significance of this week, but our real celebrations will happen in Week 7 when our local high school students come over to help teach us some dances, games and traditional activities. We can’t wait!
18.01.2022 The theme for NAIDOC Week this year is ‘Always Was, Always Will Be’. Parks Australia recognises that First Nations people have occupied and cared for this conti...nent for over 65,000 years. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people were Australia’s first explorers, first navigators, first engineers, first farmers, first botanists, first scientists, first storytellers, first diplomats, first astronomers and first artists. Booderee always was, always will be, a ‘bay of plenty’ rich in history. More than 100 Aboriginal sites have been recorded on the Bherwerre Peninsula, some dating back to the stabilisation of the sea level about 6,000 years ago. Most sites are shell middens, but there are also rock shelters, burial sites, ceremonial grounds, stone-flaking sites and axe-sharpening grooves. Booderee forms part of a network of sites, places and landscapes that have helped provide generations with the knowledge and understanding of how to properly manage and live with these lands and waters. Aboriginal people established camps where food and water were abundant and hunting and gathering were bountiful. This abundance was maintained by careful set of land management practices, Traditional Sciences and a deep understanding of Country. Seafood has always been a major part of the Booderee diet. Oysters, muttonfish (abalone), pipis and mussels were easily found, especially at low tide. Fish catches were also plentiful with skilful handlines, net fishing and the use of Aquaculture practices, such as fish traps. Fish traps where designed in such a way large fish would be caught and smaller fish could pass though maintaining breading stock. Fishing has always played (and still plays) a major role in the lives of the people of Wreck Bay. #naidoc2020 Fish traps at Booderee (photo is a long exposure by Harley Grundy @lenseflare_photography), Booderee is home to historic shell middens and hearth stones of the Wreck Bay community (Parks Australia file photos), historic shell middens (photo by Diane Garrood).
