- discussion of the significance of the rock engraving on site
- a guided walk through the site’s newly invigorated bush tucker garden to learn about traditional and contemporary uses of native plants
- a walk to the harbour look-out to learn about the traditional use of waterways, resources gathered from the harbour, local Indigenous history and the significance of Sydney's harbour islands
- how First Nations' culture embodies sustainability and directly relates to the Coal Loader’s motto: Learn from the past, embrace the future.
