National Reconciliation Week

National Reconciliation Week takes place annually from 27 May to 3 June. This year, the theme is All In. This theme, All In, a call for all Australians to commit wholeheartedly to reconciliation every single day. It is a call for Australians to be active participants in advancing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples rights.

On Monday, 1 June, we will host a whole-school assembly, marking National Reconciliation Week. We are fortunate enough to be joined by Sara Terry from Wurundjeri Council, and members of the Nillumbik Reconciliation Group. We warmly invite our school community to join us for this event. The assembly will take place in the Stadium, beginning at 11:30am.

The Student Voice and Leadership Team are also supporting Children's Ground again this year by hosting 'Wear it Yellow' day on 1 June. On this day, all members of our school community are asked to wear yellow in support of Children's Ground.

Anyone wishing to support this fundraising effort can also do so by donating online here: https://wearityellow.org.au/elthamhigh

We also encourage our community to consider attending the NRG event 'Walk for Truth Solidarity Event'. Details attached.
