  • Andranangoo Creek
    Socio-economic SECTION 19 19 Climate 19.1 Existing conditions The Tiwi Islands are located approximately 60 km north of Darwin or 20 km north of the Australian mainland at the closest point across the Clarence Strait. The main islands within the group are Bathurst and Melville, with several much smaller islands located close to the coastline. There are three main communities on the Tiwi Islands: • Nguiu (Bathurst Island); • Pirlangimpi (Melville Island); and • Milikapiti (Melville Island). There is also Wurankuwu (Bathurst Island, 60 km from Nguiu) a small outstation established in 1994. The other official outstations on the Islands are also small and have no services apart from water bores and generators. They are Paru (7 houses), Taracumbi (2 houses), Yimpinari (1 house) and Takamprimili (1 house). All are located on Melville Island (TLC 2004). The ABS census collection districts are illustrated in Figure 19.1 and the three main communities are highlighted in blue. Figure 19.1: ABS Census Collection Districts Source: ABS, 2005 19-1 Socio-economic SECTION 19 19.1.1 Population Table 19.1 presents the population of the Tiwi Islands by community and Indigenous status. The 2001 Census counted 2,236 people on the Tiwi Islands of which the majority live in Nguiu (59%) and are Tiwi Islanders (91%). The population of the Tiwi Islands accounts for approximately 1% of the total Northern Territory population and 4% of the Territory’s Indigenous population (ABS 2001b). The population rose by approximately 10% between the census in August 2001 and June 2003 when the estimated residential population was 2,454.

This is my first term as Mayor and I would like to take the opportunity to reach out to community members for their support and ideas. By working together we will create a better community for our families to thrive in and our children to grown up in. The best way to achieve this is through constant communication. My vision for the next year is to see traditional owners, local businesses, on-island organisations and all levels of government pushing together for a common goal to make our home a better place. If you have any feedback or ideas about the Council please come and talk to me, or the other elected members, and let’s have a conversation about what we can improve on. Our community is tired of hearing promises and wants action on the ground. This year will see the completion of critical infrastructure projects like the delivery of the new inter-island ferry. The new two-car ferry will double our capacity, reducing wait times and provide a better service to connect our two islands. The community deserves this improvement in service. The Milikapiti Oval upgrades will also be completed which will bring football back to Milikapiti for the first time in nearly a decade.

  • Yirrikipayiyirrikipayi Yirrikipayi in Tiwi Translates As Salt-Water Crocodile
    YirrikipayiYirrikipayi Yirrikipayi in Tiwi translates as salt-water crocodile Significance of the animal The salt-water crocodile is the largest living reptile and fiercest predator in the world. Indigenous people across the Top End of Australia have lived and hunted alongside crocodiles for thousands of years. Yirrikipayi (crocodile) is a significant animal to Tiwi people and culture. It’s one of many Tiwi dreamings or totems, which are inherited from the father, and with it come a set of responsibilities and a special dance - all taught and passed down from birth. About the language Tiwi is an Australian language spoken by approximately 2000 Tiwi people, most of who reside on the Tiwi Islands, north of Darwin in the Northern Territory. According to the UNESCO Atlas of the World’s Languages in Danger database, the state of the Tiwi language is vulnerable. Tiwi has evolved since European settlement, and there are now two variations of Tiwi spoken. Older speakers can speak Traditional or Hard Tiwi, which is also used in ceremonies, and the younger generation speak what is called Modern Tiwi. Tiwi is a stand alone language with no connection or relationship to languages on the mainland of Australia. DID YOU KNOW ? At the time of European settlement in 1788, over 250 languages with more than 700 dialects were spoken across Australia. CLASSROOM ACTIVITIES Today, only about 80 of those languages are Using the AIATSIS Map of Indigenous spoken, mainly by elders. Australia, can you find Tiwi country? Fewer than 20 Indigenous languages are currently What other animals can you think of that being learnt by Australian children.

  • November 2013
    Storenewsletter s November 2013 Hawthorn football team goes remote Cyril Rioli, Jed Anderson and Chance Bateman from the Hawthorn Football Club visited the communities of Bulman and Wugalarr last month, as an added bonus they brought the Premiership Cup with them. The players visited schools and stores in the communities to promote a healthy lifestyle. While in Wugalarr the players visited the local store to learn more about the Shop @ RIC program which is running in the store. Shop @ RIC is a study conducted by Menzies School of Health Research which involves discounts on fruit, vegetables and low kilojoule drinks. It aims to increase the consumption of these products and reduce the intake of harmful fatty and sugary foods and drinks through health promotion messages in addition to a discount on some healthy foods and drinks. The players also helped to draw the winning entries for this month’s healthy eating activity as part of the Shop @ RIC program. Pirlangimpi shelf labels Locals at Pirlangimpi (Tiwi Islands) have been shopping smarter with new shelf labels at the store. The store manager requested these to highlight pupuni ingiti (healthy food). So the school kids designed the labels and were finalised by health workers and store staff. They were placed by store staff and a local community based worker (CBW) on the shelves. Small labels were put in the shelf strips, and large labels were put in the fruit and Kathy and Bethany at the launch vegetable section of the store. The launch of the shelf labels was done as a part of the community Biggest Loser competition.

The Regional Plan and Budget is an opportunity to share our Council’s priorities for the year ahead. Working together to create a positive future for our communities. The release of the Regional Plan and Budget 2020/21 comes at a difficult time with the outbreak of Coronavirus, which is happening all over the Australia and the world. I want to assure Tiwi people and other residents of Bathurst and Melville Island that we are working closely with the Tiwi Land Council and governments to protect our communities. This Regional Plan and Budget is a chance for us to think about how we can work together to create a better community for our kids, who are the future. In the next year, I want to keep listening to our community members to hear your ideas about how we can improve and move forward together. I also expect our Councillors to be leading by example in their communities, working together with residents and stakeholders so that we can arrive at shared outcomes on the Tiwi Islands. TIRC will continue to collaborate with the Northern Territory and Commonwealth governments to deliver quality community engagement, financial and infrastructure services across the Tiwi Islands.
