A BOANDIK elder believes the inclusion of Bunganditj language in the name of Mount Gambier’s landmark recreation and convention centre project contributes to the healing process for the First Nations People and is fitting community acknowledgement.
The Margaret Street site will be officially named the Wulanda Recreation and Convention Centre after Mount Gambier City Council endorsed the name on Tuesday night.
