19.01.2022 A great day at the Unity Cup held at Rumbalara Football Netball Club. Congupna Football club won by 1 POINT!! Rumbalara Netball Team won their final. A fantastic day which has been running since 2007 between the two clubs. The event has grown significantly becoming one of the leading social inclusion events in the GV. The Unity Cup also acknowledges and celebrates the outstanding contributions women make in our community.

19.01.2022 Unity Cup was founded in 2007 as a collaboration between Rumbalara Football Netball Club and the Congupna Football Netball Club. It brings together two great clubs and has become one of the leading social inclusion events in the GV. Each year it acknowledges and celebrates our Grandmothers, mothers, aunties and sisters and the role they play in creating strong families and communities. There are many strong women and female leaders in our community who strive for equality, and empower our current and future generations. I was very proud to walk side by side in solidarity.

09.01.2022 Great to meet the team at INTO THE WILD. I was quite nervous having the lizard and snake on me but the girls made me very relaxed and were just amazing in how they handle the reptiles, and their knowledge and genuine love and care.

I learnt so much in such a short time I was to scarred to hold the snake by myselfmaybe next time.
