I have never left you Christmas island Mind adrift on waves of time Lost and wandering yet I'm smiling My soul with you in rhythmic rhyme Palm trees whisper secrets lightly Ocean breeze brings tales of old In my heart I hold you tightly Memories worth more than gold Christmas island dreams are calling Sandy shores and skies so blue Through the night I hear you singing Island love forever true Rainbows arc across the heavens Stars align above the sea Songs of joy from forest elfin In your arms I'll always be Drums that beat in perfect measure Footsteps dancing on the sand In your heart I find my treasure Filled with love and dreams so grand Far away I feel your longing Every whisper every breeze Christmas island keeps me strong and In your warmth my heart finds ease

Christmas Island so bright Memories in the night We danced and we sang Joy in every hand Past we remember clear Laughter and happy cheer Echoes in the breeze Whispers through the trees Christmas Island near and far Depends on who we are Future in our hands Let's make joyful plans Together we stand tall Answering the call Love and hope we'll spread To a future ahead Hearts unite as one Beneath the setting sun Past will guide the way To a brighter day [Chorus] Christmas Island near and far Depends on who we are Future in our hands Let's make joyful plans

Untold Stories

Let me tell you our island born story

Would you believe if we tell you we were born on Christmas Island from the 1900s to 1990s in a community filled with harmonious inter-culturalism engaged deeply in fishing, diving, catching crabs and eating bats?

Our ancestors were from Malaysia, China, Singapore and Cocos Island. The island has been a territory of Australia since 1958, we provided invaluable service to Australia to mine phosphate enabling Australian and New Zealand farmers to grow crops to feed the nation. Despite enduring extreme hardship after resettled in regional towns in the 1970s, our labour and economic contributions helped Western Australia prosper in countless ways.

We have our own music and cultural band that came from the island.

We hope by exploring our website you will discover our WA community living in Katanning, Port Hedland, Geraldton and Perth metro. We hope to see you in our regional towns.

We are on a mission to recreate the same culture on the island after years of silence.
