NAIDOC (National Aborigines and Islanders Day Observance Committee) is a significant event that honours the rich cultural heritage, achievements, and contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. We were excited to embrace and celebrate this important occasion.
On Thursday 25th July we actively engaged in NAIDOC celebrations and students were encouraged to wear indigenous colours. Our GRACE Team helped to plan the day and lead the activities. Our students participated in a range of activities and experiences on the day. To support our school's NAIDOC week celebrations, we welcomed Tjupurru to perform 'Didjeribone' which was an Australian music experience accompanied by both personal and ancestral stories. Engaging in NAIDOC celebrations not only fosters cultural awareness and respect but also provides a platform for reconciliation, unity, and shared learning.
