There is a recommendation from bunjil nganga cultural landscape Cultural Values Study (The Cultural Values Study) that the name Quarry Hills Parkland be replaced with a Woi-wurrung language name to help visitors better understand and appreciate Woi-wurrung custodianship.

The Cultural Values Study, undertaken through the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung Cultural Heritage Aboriginal Corporation (WWCHAC), is a comprehensive review of the landscape, the heritage and historically significant sites, the Woi-wurrung context and the Woi-wurrung Cultural Significance and Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung Perspective. The outcome of the report is a series of objectives and actions, which helped shape the Quarry Hills Parkland Future Directions Plan.

“bunjil nganga (Eagle View) is situated in Narrm (Melbourne) rising to over 200 meters above sea level. The western ridgeline of the parkland provides panoramic views across the landscape, reaching out to the west, to the Melbourne CBD in the south, and east beyond the Henderson’s Creek Wetlands. It lies within the suburbs of Epping and South Morang. Morang is a Woi-wurrung word that in some records is interpreted as ‘sky’ – and this is a place well situated for an eagle’s eye view across Wurundjeri Country.”

(Quote from ‘bunjil nganga Woi-wurrung Cultural Values Study’ prepared by Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung Cultural Heritage Aboriginal Corporation)

As a part of the Cultural Values Study, Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung investigated the naming of Quarry Hills Parkland. Through the language research and the cultural values study the name bunjil nganga (meaning ‘eagle view’), is recommended as the preferred name.
