澳洲原住民文化遺產辦事處聯合八個地方市議會(Lane Cove, North Sydney, Manly, Warringah, Willoughby, Ku-ring-gai, Pittwater and City of Ryde)來保護其地方原住民的文化遺產。該辦事處的工作重點是每日監測這些原住民居留地並做長期管理報告，確定原住民的文化遺產得到保存與保護。同時介於這些地區的原住民與參與事務的非原住民之間，作為討論時事與釋疑時的管道。另外一個重要角色是溝通學校與其他團體，要教育兒童使其瞭解並能欣賞原住民特有的文化。

The Aboriginal Heritage Office is a joint initiative by Lane Cove, North Sydney, Manly, Warringah, Willoughby, Ku-ring-gai, Pittwater and City of Ryde councils, in a progressive move to protect Aboriginal Heritage in these areas. The key role of the Aboriginal Heritage office is to monitor these Aboriginal Sites on a day to day basis and long term management reports are developed to ensure their preservation and protection. Another key role is to give the Aboriginal people and non-aboriginal people involved with these council areas an avenue of approach to discuss issues or concerns they may have. The other important part of the role is to communicate with school and other groups and teach children an ethos of understanding to appreciate the unique culture of the Aboriginal people.
