Aboriginal Fishing and Cultural workshops

Each year, the Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development runs fishing and cultural workshops for Aboriginal children as part of a statewide program funded by the NSW Recreational Fishing Trust.

These free workshops are undertaken in partnership with Aboriginal groups, organisations and educators.

They give opportunities for the parents, grandparents, aunties and uncles to share and impart their cultural knowledge and experiences.

Workshops are for school children (minimum age 8). A workshop will generally last no more than 6 hours and the maximum number of participants is 25. Limited numbers of workshops are available each year.

For more information contact Fisheries Community Relations Manager, George Mannah by email george.mannah@dpi.nsw.gov.au or phone 02 8437 4915.

**information needed here connecting to I4 projects that develop the workshops.**
