Singing on Dyarubbin Shores

Scheduling of this event is on hold due to the repeated flooding in the Hawkesbury region and its deep impact on our event teachers and organisers. Please consider donating to Stacy’s Flood Recovery fundraiser here.
Two days of joyful singing on Darug country with Aunty Jacinta Tobin, Stacy-Jane Etal, Rachel Hore and Suze Pratten.
The weekend features singing in Darug language with Jacinta and Stacy-Jane as well as acapella songs and harmonies with Rachel and Suze. We will be singing on Darug Country, close to the shores of Dyarubbin.
Dyarubbin is the Darug word for the Hawkesbury River.
