Always was, Always will be
Auburn South Primary School
Wawa (Hello) and Welcome to 2026
Wawa! If you’re new to our school community, welcome — we’re glad you’re here.
We invite you to begin the year by viewing our school’s Acknowledgement of Country video, which reflects our respect for the Wurundjeri Woiwurrung People of the Kulin Nation and our ongoing commitment to learning on Country.
AWAWB Book Update
Our Always Was, Always Will Be book arrived just in time before the end of last term, allowing students and staff to celebrate and share the finished publication together.
If you would like to purchase a copy as a keepsake, please contact Ms Chong, michelle.chong@education.vic.gov.au, for ordering details. Please note that copies are available for students who have participated in the project.
If you would simply like to read the book, we are currently working with our wonderful Ms Skelton to create a dedicated space for it in the library — watch this space for more updates soon!
Reconciliation Week 2026
The theme for National Reconciliation Week 2026 has been announced:
