Younga Yarns

Even though yesterday was rain and wind today was a beautiful day to share culture got to love the change of seasons from one to to the next.

Thank you to the Oz Fish Mackay Chapter for coming along to learn about our wonderful plants, foods and medicines.

Thanks to Aunty Les for making the yummy dampers and to my girls for helping me get everything ready.

2 weeks ago the Younga Yarns went to the Joy in Action C&K - The Creche & Kindergarten Association Limited conference. We went to share what we do especially the new Udya Walbu educational platform and our professional development training for educators.

We had an amazing time not only meeting the educators but all the other vendors who offer some amazing services.

Im not the best at remembering to take photos all I got was these 2 in the quiet moments. But all the food I ate on the trip was well documented lol 😋

This week Aunty Bron came along and read some stories to the young minds at Green Leaves Early Learning Mount Pleasant

Thank you for sharing you time and thanks Greenleaves for having Younga Yarns come in again

This is winter in Mackay, Queensland: Winter in Queensland will never fail to amaze me: sunrises on the beach, waterfalls & off-grid accommodation. It really doesn’t feel like winter at all. 📍 @visitmackayisaac - @queensland [this is a paid collaboration] #QueenslandHolidayFeeling #ThisIsQueensland #VisitMackay #queensland #queenslandtravel

Today we were at the Mackay Festival of Art Food and Wine day sharing our knowledge on Ochre.

People of all ages were able to create their own chemical free paint, learn about the other uses of Ochre and then with tree resin glue and create their own artwork.

Thank you Food & Wine Festival, Mackay for giving us the opportunity to share with the wider community.

I even met one my little OSHC friends 🧡

I love my job look at what a little kindy friend made me ❤️ 😍 💖
