Pilbara
For the past few years, with Woodside's support, Ngala has
visited the Pilbara to provide parental education and support
through
its workshops.
Woodside is Ngala’s principal partner in Nurturing the Pilbara. Until 2012 Ngala and Woodside will work together to extend parenting and early years services and activities to Pilbara communities, including Roebourne. Dampier, Wickham and Karratha.
Working together, we will develop a community approach to help parents with babies and young children. This project is part of Woodside’s goal of helping build strong and thriving communities where it operates.
Ngala Activities
Through this partnership Ngala will regularly visit the Pilbara to provide early parenting education to local community groups, service providers and families. Ngala’s work in these communities will continue through telephone and email support services.
Ngala provide support to existing community early years programs through:
- - Parent and professional workshops
- - Community forums
- - Resource kits
- - Improving its services in the Pilbara through regular evaluation
Over the course of the project Ngala has visited Karratha, Roebourne, Wickham, Dampier, Hedland, Pannawonica and Newman.
Ngala works with communities to provide visits and tailored workshops for these regional areas. If you are interested in organising a community education session, or require more information about our regional visits, contact pilbara@ngala.com.au
