Latest from the KCU team
We're a little late in sharing these photos as July was a big month for the KCU team, but here are a few images of our NAIDOC Week celebrations at Christmas Creek and Cloudbreak. This year's theme honours the enduring strength of First Nations culture – with fire as a symbol of connection to Country, to each other, and to the rich tapestry of traditions that define Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. The celebrations were a great success, providing an opportunity to show respect and appreciation for Indigenous culture. Over two nights, KCU family members Hayati, Garry, and Suryani Jaffrey (not to mention many volunteers) catered to the crews by preparing traditional dishes such as turtle, kangaroo, and dugong. The people on-site enjoyed the cultural experience and learning about Indigenous traditional foods. Adding to the festive atmosphere, the talented band "Puertside" played music for everyone to enjoy. In addition to NAIDOC Week, we also attended the Pilbara Indigenous Business Network Group Tradeshow in Karratha. This event is designed to showcase Indigenous businesses and their service offerings with local businesses, industry, and local Government. The environment celebrated these Indigenous businesses and opened up networking opportunities for like-minded business owners to connect. #NAIDOCWeek #IndigenousCulture #Community #KCU #Respect #Diversity #Pilbara
