Candlelight Vigil for Kumanjayi Little Baby π―οΈπ
The Meekatharra community came together on Thursday evening to honour and remember Kumanjayi Little Baby, a five-year-old girl from Alice Springs, during a Candlelight Vigil held at the Swimming Pool lawn. Community members were encouraged to wear pink, her favourite colour, as a tribute to her memory.
Families, children, Elders and community members gathered in a quiet show of support, reflection and solidarity. The vigil included a moment of silence, candle lighting and time for personal reflection, before concluding with evening tea shared amongst the community.
The vigil was led by community member Timika King and reflected the strength, care and unity of the Meekatharra community.
