The Warangesda Website is in early development and additional information will be added over time. This website is designed to bring together a range of public information on the former Warangesda Aboriginal Mission based at Darlington Point in the Riverina Region of NSW. If you have any information that could be added to this website please contact one of the Aboriginal organisations on the Contact Page.

The website is part of the 'Warangesda Exhibition and History Project' funded by the Australian Government - Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet under it's Indigenous Advancement Strategy (IAS) - Culture and Capability Programme. Funding was provided to the Leeton & District Local Aboriginal Land Council to administer the project.
