Nillumbik Local History

Congratualtions to all involved in last week's launch of the Nillumbik Reconciliation Charter and the opening of the Moor-rul Viewing Platform.

The Nillumbik Reconciliation Charter demonstrates Council's commitment to reconciliation and further develops a relationship with the Wurundjeri based on respect, acknowledgement and recognition.

The Moor-rul viewing Platform is an educational facility where visitors can take in the breathtaking views of the Nillumbik surrounds. Eight double-sided interpretative panels describe the development of the local area and descriptions of Indigenous significance.
