21.01.2022 Congratulations to the Graduating Class of 2020! Last night we celebrated your academic achievements and successful completion of 13 years of formal schooling. Thank you for being such outstanding ambassadors for Inaburra and contributing to the unique culture that makes our School such a wonderful learning community. It was an honour to share this milestone with you and your families, face-to-face (the first public event we have had since March). There was definitely pure joy on many of your faces, realising that the HSC is behind you, and an unimpeded future lies ahead. Inaburra wishes you all the very best and God's blessing for the journey that awaits. We'd also like to acknowledge our amazing photographer, Daniel, who took these photos - too many to share with you all here. Cherished memories of a very special night.

19.01.2022 They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old; Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them... Lest we forget #RemembranceDay #WeRememberThem #LestWeForget (Photo taken at our Junior School Remembrance Day 2019)

14.01.2022 Inaburra's Digital Dance Showcase was a beautiful exhibition of our student dancers' incredible physical strength and flexibility, and it also represented the mental, emotional, and spiritual strength and agility these students have been required to develop throughout the challenging circumstances they have faced this year in completing their Dance studies. The high standard of work these students have produced, despite the disruptions of online learning and the COVID-19 restrictions, is admirable. Thanks to all the student dancers who took part, the Dance Teaching Staff, Alumni Dance teachers, Media students and Technical staff who helped pull the showcase together.

Their endless encouragement helps me every day to keep chasing my dreams.

04.01.2022 A Flag Raising Ceremony was conducted last week to mark the occasion of raising the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander flags alongside the Australian National flag together for the first time at the front of our School. These three flags will now fly together every day. The ceremony was attended by representatives of the local Dharawal community along with the Chairman of the Board, Inaburra Principal, Dr Pietsch, School Captains, staff from the school and the preschool and a representative from the ADF to assist with following flag flying protocols. This ceremony is one step we are taking as a school as we look to build stronger links with the local Dharawal community so we can become be better informed about their history and culture.

02.01.2022 Inaburra School is one of the few Independent schools in NSW that has an indigenous name: the word ‘inaburra’ comes from the Wiradjuri word for ‘dream’. As a school, we regularly pay our respects to elders of the Dharawal nation at assemblies and our students learn about indigenous history and culture across the curriculum. We realised however, there is more we could be doing to raise awareness of indigenous issues and to show respect to those members of the Dharawal nation ...whose people have inhabited this part of Sydney for thousands of years. Inaburra has been pursuing a number of initiatives in relation to indigenous education, and given that we are currently in NAIDOC week, the timing seems appropriate to be sharing two of these initiatives with the wider community. FLAG RAISING CEREMONY Tomorrow (Friday 13 November) we will be conducting a ceremony to mark the occasion of raising the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander flags out the front of the school. The installation of a new flagpole will allow us to fly all three flags the Australian National flag, the Aboriginal flag and the Torres Strait Islander flag. Member for Hughes, Mr Craig Kelly MP, officially presented our new flags to Inaburra's School Captains, Daniel and Kate, last week. INDIGENOUS SCHOLARSHIP In 2021 we will be introducing a fourth scholarship category, the Indigenous Scholarship, that will sit alongside our Academic, Music and All-rounder scholarships. Details of our scholarship program can be found on the Inaburra School website. These initiatives are just the first of many as we seek to build stronger links with the local Dharawal community, be better informed about their history and culture, raise awareness of indigenous issues across the school and support indigenous education at Inaburra.
