Welcome to Nalderun Education Aboriginal Corporation

At our core Nalderun creates empowering education and employment opportunities for First Nations young people at the foothills of Liyanganyuk Banyul, on Djaara Country.

Nalderun is the Djaara word for All Together. Together with the broader community we are growing our young people strong and proud through connection to Community, Country, and Culture.

Nalderun is an Aboriginal Education Community Organisation operating since 2009 on Djaara Country, Castlemaine in Liyanganyuk Banyul (Mount Alexander) Shire, Victoria.

We are Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander run and led under the guidance of our senior Djaara Elder Uncle Rick Nelson and continuing the legacy of Uncle Brien Nelson and Aunty Julie McHale.

We currently support more than 150 young mob across Djaara Country.

Nalderun fosters learning through Culture and Country. Through partnerships, programs and events, we teach about our ways and through our worldview for a thriving future for all.
