25.01.2022 Jingeri (hello)! #throwbackthursday to last week when I launched my new plush on #borobiday20 Big thanks to my jimbelung (friends) who helped make this possible! Commonwealth Games FederationCommonwealth Games AustraliaKate JonesPreston Campbell FoundationARTIE Academy

24.01.2022 Jingeri (hello)! Are you ready to learn the names of some more birds in Yugambeh language?

24.01.2022 These kubill (beautiful) smiles at Sunny Faces Early Learning Centre are reflected on the faces of our elders. The Board of Yugambeh Museum was incorporated in 1985 with a commitment to the conservation and promotion of the cultural heritage of their traditional ancestors of the Yugambeh Region. As every Board member is a direct descendant of the traditional owners of the Yugambeh region, they will be overjoyed to see Yugambeh language delivered through innovative projects demonstrated by your centre. Keep up the amazing work!

18.01.2022 On the 29th May, Borobi encourages everybody to use Indigenous languages for Borobi day. In Yugambeh language it can be as easy as using 2 words ‘Jingeri Jimbelung’(hello friend/g’day mate)! #borobiday20

16.01.2022 In preparation for Saturday’s NRL Indigenous Round the Gold Coast Titans players positions have been translated in Yugambeh language. Have a listen to the audio to help with pronunciation. All the best to our local team for their upcoming game!

16.01.2022 Today is National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Children's day! You can celebrate by greeting the jajumm (children) in the local language, in Yugambeh... language you can say Jingeri (hello/g'day) It is an opportunity for us to show our support for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children, as well as learn about the crucial impact that culture, family and community play in the life of every Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander child. #kidsconnectedtoculture

15.01.2022 Jingeri jimbelung (hello friend/g'day)! Have you got your new Borobi plush yet? My new plush shirt is designed by my jimbelung (friend) Preston Campbell Foundation

14.01.2022 Today we observe National Sorry Day. A day to remember and acknowledge the mistreatment of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples who were forcibly remov...ed from their families. We also acknowledge the ongoing work of organisations such as Healing Foundation to address the ongoing trauma in our communities from the forced removal of children from their families. https://bit.ly/SorryDay2020 If there was one issue high on the agenda at the Sydney Harbour Bridge walk for reconciliation in 2000, it was an apology to the Stolen Generations. It was also high in the sky, when a group of people - independent to the organisation of the walk - had the word ‘Sorry’ written in the clear blue skies above the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Such was the intensity of feeling and support for Stolen Generations members many of whom were amongst the huge crowd that day. Today, twenty-three years after the Bringing Them Home report and twelve years since the National Apology, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children are still 10.6 times more likely than non-Indigenous children to be removed from their families. We cannot begin to fix the problems of the present without accepting the truth of our history. Sorry Day asks us to acknowledge the Stolen Generations, and in doing so, reminds us that historical injustice is still an ongoing source of intergenerational trauma for Aboriginal and Torres Islander families, communities, and peoples.

03.01.2022 27 May marks the beginning of National Reconciliation Week every year. It’s the day of the 1967 referendum that saw more than 90 per cent of Australian voters ...chose ‘Yes’ to count Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in the census and give the Australian Government the power to make laws for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. 50 years later, the Uluru Statement from the Heart said, "In 1967 we were counted, in 2017 we seek to be heard. In 2021, we must take braver action and speak up to support current calls by First Nations Peoples for treaties, constitutional reform, and the Uluru Statement from the Heart. What actions will you take in 2021? https://bit.ly/NRW2021Actions Image: Historical #NRW poster from 2007 which marked 40 years since the referendum. #NRW2021 #MoreThanAWord #Reconciliation From the Heart
