history
The Lower Murray Nungas
Club, in Murray Bridge, was started in 1974 by the late Aileen Wilson
to provide support to local Aboriginal people. It began as a drop-in
centre for young people and had close connections with the local Ngarrindjeri
football club.
The Nungas Club was used for a range of functions, which included vocational education, catering committee, Aboriginal foster care worker based at centre, family support worker also based at centre, drop-in centre for local community and also a cultural resource centre.
