 Babangal, Nayya, Bronwyn Chambers, Dakinung, Awabakal, Dinya, Dakinung, Dili, Nira. I am Bronwyn Chambers, a proud Dakinung woman, descendant of the Awabakal people. This is Dakinung land and will and always remain Aboriginal land, no matter what is built upon it. I'd like to pay my respects to my Nirocite past, to present, and especially our future leaders, our youth. Yadda, Gaiagu, Dakinung, Nira, welcome to Dakinung Country. When I first saw the Central Coast Clinical School and Research Institute, I thought, wow. It's probably the most stunning buildings I've seen, especially being built on Dakinung Country and being a nurse who worked at Gosford Hospital for many years, you know, it's very significant to me. It is really a fabulous teaching and learning space for everybody. The Department of Education was doing some language research and trying to reinvigorate languages within the Central Coast. So we asked, could we have 12 months to see if we could find Dakinung Language. We started researching in 2008 and we actually launched the dictionary, as it is today, here on Arimba campus. It's very exciting. I'm sure Dad's up there and the ancestors are smiling on this country now. It's about talking, hearing, listening place. You would listen to the elders or the Nirocite and just listen here in that special place. We looked at the space that was going to be used for and how Aboriginal people would have used that for thousands of years. Aboriginal people have always been scientists. We looked at the seasons. Our seasons were very important. We didn't have four. We had more than four seasons and look at what was actually happening in the environment. And I believe that in a lab space, in Dakinung Language, Darlene Nira is about watching and watching what grows, watching what's under the microscope and seeing how it all develops and what they can achieve through that. For the collaborative space, it's about everybody, Aboriginal and non-Aboriginals. And I looked at a word called Nalia Nira. And Nalia is about we, you and I together. And I think that's what a collaborative space is for everybody to use and to learn and to educate everybody and sometimes just to sit and listen. For a staff workplace, Nira, Gu, Narabayan. And what it meant was was a place for all. And I believe that that's what a staff workplace is. It's about everybody coming together, sharing that knowledge and learning for a positive outcome for everybody. It's also about the University of Newcastle working in that space and the local health district, LHD. They are closely working together on everything that happens within that building. The lunchroom, which is really significant to everyone, Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal, everybody's got to eat and everybody shares. And the word I looked at was Bunder Nira and it just simply means food place. As an Aboriginal woman and a dark and young woman living on my country all my life and my family not having that language for so many years because it was taken away from us as most of our traditional practices were, to see it displayed still brings a tear to my eye, I can assure you. But I think what it is, it's teaching and it's about learning but mainly it brings about conversation and I think it's for the benefit of not just Aboriginal people but all people that live on the Central Coast or come to that beautiful building to visit it will see that and everybody will learn something.
