We have just recently finished our annual Bunya Nut harvesting from the trees here at Namatjira Haven.

- After that we patiently remove kernels
- Boil the seed for about 20/30 mins in salted water.
- Peel the skin off to reveal the nut itself.

These are the used to make pan toasted bunya nut, bunya nut pesto cooked with fish, bushtucker crocodile etc

An important part of our residents healing journey is having access to fresh, regular and healthy meals. Between our free range chickens, vegetable gardens and bushtucker on site there is always an element of our sustainable food sources provided for in every meal.

2026 lays before us already!

Wishing you all a very happy new year from Namatjira Haven!

Every year Aboriginal men pass through our doors and find health, healing and a new life for themselves. Anything is possible when we are ready to find 'Gulgihwen' (Change) and take a new direction.

This year is going to be a good one!

We are proud of the men who have passed through our program this past year making changes for the better and forging 'Gulgihwen' in their own lives.

2026 is just around the corner and its going to be a good one!

Last week Namatjira Haven hosted the Kinchela Boys Home Aboriginal Corporation Cultural Bus for a session of truth telling with Uncles who survived the boys home.

Although tears were shed, we were made stronger by their honesty and resilience. The truth, no matter how hard it is, must be told...

We were honoured by their presence and shared some lunch with the Kinchela crew after the session and the Uncles then joined in our regular music group with the residents.

We are also thankful and grateful to the KBHAC for bringing the bus up and to Aboriginal Affairs NSW for the funding that made this possible.

We just had our Christmas gathering at Summerland Farm!

We celebrated with Board chair Uncle Phil Roberts and member Aunty Sandra Bolt in attendance.

Our Board and staff are dedicated to making Namatjira a place for our residents to grow and thrive and a really big thank you for all the effort and energy this past year to everyone!

We are looking forward to many exciting things coming in 2026 and continuing to support the men who pass through our doors find 'Gulgihwen' !

Remembering this Fella!!

Its been just over 3 months since our Banjo passed. Leaving a permanent mark on our hearts, the residents who passed through our doors and all the staff here.

Banjo was a very unique animal and lived amongst the residents for over a decade. He knew who needed affection at the right time and always had space and a tail wag for new folks the way only a dog can.

We could swear we hear his little feet pattering about sometimes, and feel he is with us in spirit keeping an eye on the place....

We miss you Banjo! Rest in peace little fella!

Our 'Gulgihwen' (Change) program encourages our residents to find new healthy habits to replace old ways.

Every week they attend our partners at TAFE NSW Wollongbar learning new interests, skills on their way to find a new path.

We recently finished 4 weeks of horticulture, learning about plants, growth and sustainability.

Its going to be a hot one today.....

This stunning Magnolia is over 100 years old and provides shade in the recreation area. This tree stood on these grounds before Namatjira Haven was built here providing shade and peace and is a reminder that when things change around us, deep roots always stand the test of time!

What a beauty!

A view from the outdoor recreation area here at Namatjira Haven...

Namatjira Haven is a place where Aboriginal men can come rest, recoup and reforge a new path through health and healing.

Our 'Gulgihwen' program has helped over 3000 men that have passed through our doors find a new path and peace.

And check out those shade sails!

We recently took part in Naidoc celebrations at our neighbours, Namabunda Farm.

Plenty of stalls and community on a beautiful day. Our residents with the help of Michael Turner and Ralph Close were the band for the day.

Pretty neat eh!
