NAIDOC Week It is pleasing to see that there was a full range of activities planned for NAIDOC week celebrations in the Shire from 5 th to 12 th July . Unfortunately due to COVID restrictions Brewarrina has Postponed the Events until September . A program will be available and everyone is invited to be involved in celebrating and raising awareness of our First Australians heritage and culture . The NAIDOC week committee and sponsors that include all the interagency groups are to be commended for their commitment to this important community celebration .
