The Minimbah Aboriginal Pre-School and Primary School, Armidale NSW was founded in 1963 in east Armidale, New South Wales, near the local Narwan village. It was opened as a Pre-school under the auspices of The Save the Children Fund. "Minimbah" means 'place of learning' in the Anaiwain language.
In 1987, Mrs. Dianne Roberts was appointed the first Aboriginal Director and Principal of the school. Mrs. Roberts has received the Order of Australia for her work at Minimbah and her contribution to Indigenous education.
Gallery Amichi is proud to be associated with Dianne Roberts and her vision of education for Indigenous students.
