The facility, in partnership with Scone Library, hosted two workshops – junior and senior - featuring Michelle Earl.
And, SNRC manager Lee Watts said it was a great day.
“I think the kids got a lot out of it,” she explained.
“Children of all ages participated in a variety of activities such as painting boomerangs, animal dancing and Storytime.
“Michelle’s a proud Wanaruah woman – we were delighted to have her on board.
“She shared some traditional yarns, which gave everyone a better understanding of Aboriginal culture.”
Mrs Watts said the SNRC received a grant from the NSW Government Educational Aboriginal Affairs to conduct the workshops.
“We really appreciate the support and thank everyone for taking part in the day,” she added.
