School Reconciliation Plan

A community meeting will be held on Tuesday 15th October at 2:30.

The main focus of this meeting will be to review and update our RAP. 

We were able to identify the components of the plan that we were doing well,and highlight the areas where we need to take action. 

Explore that the rich and thriving culture, knowledge and experience of our First Nations peoples are celebrated by all members of our community and that these are reflected in our RAP.

All interested members of our community are invited to attend. We will make access to this meeting through teams for those unable to attend in person. An invite link is added below.
