​Mudgee District U3A connects seniors living

Indigenous Cultural Significance
Mudgee is full of Aboriginal history and was home to the Wiradjuri Nation which extended from the Blue Mountain eastern ranges to the Lachlan and Murrumbidgee rivers in the west, with the Murray River forming the southern border and the Wellington plains and hills the northern border.
The Wiradjuri Nation was split, and sub split into many tribes. In Mudgee the Mowgee clan extended over a 50 km radius. The Mowgee women’s totem was the wedge tail eagle (Mullian) and the men’s totem was the crow (Waggan). They settled around the Cudgegong River, using its resources for food and water.
Many Mudgee districts were named after the local Wiradjuri tribal areas, including Mudgee itself (Moothi, nest in the hills), Lue (Loowee, a chain of water holes), Gulgong (a gully), Wollar (a rock water hole), Menah (flat country), Eurunderee (a local tree), Guntawang (a peaceful place), Cooyal (dry country), Wilbertree (a long switch), Burrendong (darker than usual). The Aboriginal name for the Rylstone area was Combalong.


"U3A is a movement which enables people in their Third Age to continue and share the journey
​of life-long learning"
