WALAAYBAA
wol-aye-baa
meeting place, home in Kamilaroi language
The WALAAYBAA room is located at the Tamworth Education Centre (TEC).
It is a cultural safe place for DRH Students, Staff and Communities to meet, yarn, work, study and reconnect. Safe places are essential for our wellbeing and to keep grounded.
The University of Newcastle acknowledges the traditional custodians of the lands within our footprint areas: Awabakal, Darkinjung, Biripai, Worimi, Wonnarua, and Eora Nations. We also pay respect to the wisdom of our Elders past and present.
