Moola Bulla, just to
the north of Halls Creek, has a central place in the hearts and minds of Aboriginal people
in the central and east Kimberley. It was established in 1910 by the Aborigines Department.
It was hoped Moola Bulla might alleviate some of the conflict with pastoralists and reduce the
incidence of cattle spearing, that a ration station would reduce the need for local people to kill
livestock and instead train them to work in the growing East Kimberley pastoral industry.
The idea was to congregate Aboriginal people in a place that was part institution and part cattle
station.
