Thought it was a great initiative by local government working in partnership with the local Murri community. Saddened to see this going "belly up". Of course another good example of one step forward and three steps back! And I thought it was an example of good practice!!

The keeping place is for all historical data. I would not want it to be another place of the Aboriginal History to be closed down, and all historical artifacts and data to be lost forever.

We have lost so much of our history because of government bodies taking away all this from us. It would be good for it to be moved to a larger premise so visitors can enjoy the Dhiiyaan Centre.

Moree is a key focus for political movement and social change for Aboriginal people.
This project has helped heal many wounds and assisted Aboriginal families re-connect. As such it is vital it does not close, but leads the way for all local research and local government commitmment with Aboriginal people.
Don't destroy a worthwhile benefit to our people.

Not only is it important to keep our culture alive but also having a suitable place which is conducive for learning to everyone in the local & wider community.

This centre will give the younger generation a place that they can have pride in, take ownership in preserving the knowledge that makes us proud aboriginal people.

Moree council should acknowledge & support all the good work that can be achieved.
