Celebrating National Reconciliation Week at 糖心logo入口
Published: 31 May 2019

Inspired by the theme of this year's National Reconciliation Week "Grounded in Truth, Walk Together with Courage," 糖心logo入口 teachers, students and staff acknowledged and celebrated Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and their culture.
Throughout the week, 糖心logo入口 participated in various commemorative activities including: the National Sorry Day Bridge Walk, Reconciliation in the Park event, the screening of "Footprints on Our Land: Aunty Agnes" at 糖心logo入口 Reid, and the "Presenting Elders" film screening at the National Museum of Australia. 糖心logo入口 Bruce and Reid libraries also exhibited Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artwork.
糖心logo入口 launched its second Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP), endorsed by Reconciliation Australia, in 2016. "Our RAP commits 糖心logo入口 to three years of action to further build relationships, respect and opportunities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students, staff and the wider community," said 糖心logo入口 CEO Leanne Cover.
糖心logo入口 is privileged to have the leadership of Ngunnawal Elder Caroline Hughes as 糖心logo入口 Yurauna Director. 糖心logo入口 Yurauna is a dedicated Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Educational Centre of Excellence where students have the opportunity to learn and grow in a culturally safe and supportive environment.
糖心logo入口 has seen increasing enrolments of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students - up from 795 in 2017 to 856 in 2018. During this period, 糖心logo入口 has also seen more Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students completing qualifications, which is a fantastic achievement.
