naidoc week 2024
In the Wyndham area, the indigenous history is a vibrant tapestry woven with the cultural heritage of the Bunurong and Wadawurrung People, essential members of the Kulin Nation. This region intricately houses five distinctive language groups, encapsulating the profound cultural significance and connection to the land.
Renowned artist John Lambley, and his children Jy, Giselle, Kyle, Kain and Mason are proud Wadawurrung people living on Wadawurrung country. Together John, Jy and Giselle have brought the essence of Indigenous art to life with “Past & Present Dreaming”, the remarkable artwork commissioned for WynActive.
In a gesture of respect and acknowledgment of the traditional custodians of the land, WynActive hosted a special ceremony at Eagle Stadium on Monday, 8th July at 10:00am. The event commenced with a solemn welcome to country, recognising the traditional custodians of the land, followed by a traditional smoking ceremony to purify and cleanse the surroundings.

The Lambley family then presented the Past & Present Dreaming, and proudly told a story about the art piece. Guiding us through artwork that intricately weaves together the essence of AquaPulse, Eagle Stadium and Werribee Outdoor Pool, capturing the vibrant histroy and life of Wyndham.
This Friday, 12th July, at 3:00 pm, we journeyed across the natural borders of the Werribee River into Bunurong country and met at AquaPulse, for a final smoking ceremony to conclude our NAIDOC week celebrations.



































As we closed NAIDOC week with a final cleansing ceremony, we took this moment to reflect on our journey filled with celebration and connection.
This week has been a profound collaboration between art and community, demonstrating the enduring spirit of reconciliation and cultural preservation.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to the Lambley family for making this week exceptional with their stunning art piece, “Past and Present Dreaming.” Their creation and storytelling have now woven WynActive into their narrative.
Across Eagle Stadium in Wadawurrung country, AquaPulse in Bunurong country, and Werribee Outdoor Pool at the sacred site of Bungies Hole—a historic meeting place for the Wadawurrung and Bunurong people—we honor these vibrant cultural landscapes.
WynActive continues to embrace the Indigenous roots of Wyndham. Initiatives like these reflect our commitment to celebrating diversity and cultivating a more inclusive society for everyone.
