Arnhem Land visit

Last week Megan and I had the opportunity to go on an HR visit to our Arnhem Land programme in the Northern Territory. As some of you will identify with it has been a long time since we have been able to fly anywhere. As you can see it looks a bit different due to the mandatory wearing of face masks both in the airport and on the plane.

Last year we had a restructure of the programme and with that came much change and transition. None of which are easy. However, it was a privilege to be able to have some face to face time with many of the families/individiuals. Thanks to the team for making us feel so welcome.

On Saturday Megan and I had some time to explore. However, our movements were slightly restricted due to not having a permit to walk on indigenous land. Thankfully, signposts ensured that we were left in no doubt as to where we were standing.

Beautiful Shady Beach.....but....can you see the crocodile?  No?  Me neither but the coastline is inundated with them so we had our eyes peeled. :)
