Our Place – Mayrung


ABOUT

Our community has been known by many names, Carratha, Pine Hills, Narrama and now it is called Mayrung. In traditional Aboriginal language, the area Carratha means ‘place of many pines.’ The Europeans first settled in Carratha around 1870 because of the good water supply.

We wish to thank the Mayrung students and families who provided information that contributed to this publication.
