Ration Shed Tour
"When our Elders were moved off the land and
taken to Cherbourg they were cut off from their
traditional sources of food and were given
weekly rations of mainly flour, sugar, tea, sago,
rice, split peas and meat. The rations were
given from a wooden shed which we have
restored and call The Ration Shed Museum.
We use the Ration Shed as a space to tell our stories."
