About Kaartdijin Dandjoo

Kaartdijin Dandjoo is a free, hands-on learning experience held at the Harvey Recreation and Cultural Centre across the six Noongar seasons. Developed with the support of members of the Harvey Aboriginal Corporation, this program provides an opportunity to learn, connect and explore Noongar culture and knowledge throughout the changing seasons.

This is the Kambarang (Noongar season of birth and the second spring) program, introducing a special time when bush foods and fruits are plentiful. It explores the significance of plants, trees and animals in the cultural practices and beliefs associated with the Kambarang season. It also explores how the blossoms of trees signify a change in season and provide a clear indication of upcoming changes in the weather.

Session 1: Moodjar (Christmas Tree)

This session highlights respect for and custodianship of cultural knowledge while exploring the deep relationship between people, place and culture.
