Wominjeka - Indigenous Cultural Experiences with Murrundindi
Every Sunday, Murrundindi (Wurundjeri Elder), is here to share the cultural stories of his land. Learn a little language as he welcomes you onto Country with a friendly Womenjika; listen to the sounds of the didgeridoo; stop to have a yarn; hear local stories, and be amazed at his mastery making that Boomerang really fly.

You can meet Murrundindi every Sunday 10:30am to 3:00pm, or every day except Saturday in the school holidays and on public holidays. Free with general admission.
