Welcome Baby To Country
Hume City Council invite you to attend the Welcome Baby to Country Ceremony.
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children from 0-3 years of age will be welcomed to Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung Country by a local elder as part of the special ceremony. The ceremony is an acknowledgement of the local Boorais connection to the traditional lands of the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung and Gunung-Willam-Balluk clan. The ceremony provides an opportunity to come together as a community to celebrate living culture and acknowledge the importance of a child’s sense of identity and belonging.
If you have a child under the age of 5 years old and would like them to be Welcomed on this day please email AboriginalEngagementTeam@hume.vic.gov.au to register your interest.
