REGION

The Moorambilla Voices program is geographically centred in the regional, remote and very remote regions of western NSW, Australia.

Michelle’s epic audition tour covers over one third of the state and the local government areas of Bogan, Bourke, Brewarrina, Central Darling, Cobar, Coonamble, Dubbo, Gilgandra, Narrabri, Narromine, Warren, Warrumbungle and Walgett.  Annually, she visits over 55 schools in 30 towns.  

This region is designated as outback and remote. 

It has the highest proportion of young people (aged 5-14) as a percentage of population in NSW. 

It has the highest proportion of indigenous children in the state.  

Forty percent of the population are designated as low income. 

Because of the vast distances between small population centres, the region currently receives no professional musical touring programs. Nor does the region have access to organised music except in an very few number of schools.
