Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders
Acknowledging Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people is an important aspect of ending exclusion.
Sundew Day Surgery acknowledges the Whadjuk people of the Noongar nation, and recognises the culture of the Noongar people and the unique contribution they make to the Joondalup region and Australia.
Awareness of the importance of different cultures and acceptance of this diversity as a part of modern Australia is central to the Sundew Day Surgery culture. This increased acceptance across all aspects of our society is a critical aspect in helping to create a more united Australia.

About the Whadjuk region
Whadjuk is the name of the dialectal group of indigenous people from the Perth area. Whadjuk is situated south and north of the Pinjarup dialectal groups.
The major cities and towns within the Whajuk region include Perth, Fremantle, Joondalup, Armadale, Toodyay, Wundowie, Bullsbrook and Chidlow. The approximate size of the Whadjuk region is 5,580 km.
Sundew day surgery is based in Joondalup – this Northern part of the Whajuk region is part of Mooro country, and is an important place for indigenous people. Mooro Elders have granted permission for stories and other information in the 2014 Joondalup Mooro Boodjar to be published to enable the community to gain a wider appreciation of the indigenous connection to the land.
The name Joondalup is a Noongar word, first recorded in 1837 and possibly meaning either “place of whiteness or glistening”, or “place of a creature that can only move backwards”.
