Walk for Reconciliation – Kaarta Koomba (Kings Park)

On Thursday 22 October, I had the privilege of taking part in the Walk for Reconciliation at Kaarta Koomba (Kings Park).

The day began with a Smoking Ceremony and Welcome to Country led by Uncle Ben Taylor and his grandson Grahame Turvey, alongside Jayden Boundry, with words shared in Nyoongar language.

We then gathered in the rotunda for discussions about history and truth-telling before singing I Am, You Are, We Are Australian. Hearing the song sung first in Nyoongar and then together in English was a powerful reminder that while we come from many backgrounds, we are all connected.

As we continued the walk to a lookout, two young men played the didgeridoo. It was here that a butterfly landed on me and stayed throughout part of the journey, only flying away after we had completed the women’s section of the walk.

The path then divided into three routes – women’s, men’s and group pathways – where participants learned about the different experiences of Aboriginal men and women. We also heard important truths about Perth’s history, including the restrictions once placed on Aboriginal people and the areas they were prevented from accessing.

Further along, we stopped at a display honouring four Aboriginal brothers who served in the military. Despite fighting for our country, they returned home to discrimination and a lack of recognition and respect. Their story was a moving reminder of the injustices experienced by many Aboriginal servicemen and women.

The walk concluded with traditional dance performances, storytelling and opportunities for the crowd to learn and participate. School students especially embraced the experience, and it was wonderful to see people of all ages engaging with culture and learning together.

It was a deeply meaningful experience that will stay with me for a long time. Events such as these provide valuable opportunities to listen, learn, reflect and continue the journey towards reconciliation.
