13.01.2022 Today is the start of National Reconciliation Week which gives Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people the chance to come together and share the steps towards reconciliation. This is a time when we celebrate and build on the relationships shared between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and other Australians. It is also a great opportunity to reflect on our shared histories, contributions and achievements. Over the next week teachers and students will be exploring this via their classroom programs both on-site and via remote learning.
