Bush Babies

In 2010, a group of local Quairading community members came together for a reunion at the Badjaling Noongar Reserve in the Central Wheatbelt, a meeting that was the beginning of Bush Babies. At the reunion, the Elders who were born at Badjaling and the Noongar midwives who delivered them shared photographs, stories and memories of the Reserve.

Working alongside oral historian Mary Anne Jebb, a film crew from Film and Television Institute’s Indigenous Community Stories recorded the day and photographer Brad Rimmer ran photographic workshops and took portraits of the Elders.
