Gunida Gunyah Aboriginal Corporation programs officer Steph Cameron said the event aimed at connecting with others in the community.

"Our leaders, our carers and our teachers have been our decision makers our whole life and the event is really to have a yarn with others and meet new people, not just the people you do know," she said.

"It's all about bringing people together ... and having fun."

The event is funded through a NSW Government Communities and Justice grandparents day 2019 grants program, and covers all costs.

Interested locals should contact Gunida Gunyah on 6742 7038 to book in their place or for more information about the event.
