Reconciliation Week

National Reconciliation Week Form May 27 (National Sorry Day) to June 3rd  is a time for all Australians to learn about and respect Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, cultures and histories. It encourages everyone to work together for a fairer and more respectful Australia. The 2026 theme, “All In”, reminds us that reconciliation is everyone’s responsibility every day, not just during one week. Students can help by listening respectfully, learning about First Nations cultures, using inclusive language, standing up against racism and taking part in school activities that celebrate culture and diversity. These everyday actions help build understanding, kindness and stronger relationships between people in our school and wider community.

• Dates will be identified and shared with students – look for posters in sections!

We are proud to share that Concord School has officially achieved the Blue Award for School-Wide Positive Behaviour Support (SWPBS) from the Department of Education. This recognition reflects the commitment of our staff, students, and the broader community to create a positive, respectful, and supportive learning environment for everyone.

SWPBS focuses on explicitly teaching and reinforcing positive behaviours, building strong relationships, and ensuring that every student feels safe, supported, and ready to learn.

• We are being presented with the award this week.
• We would like to celebrate as a whole school in the last week of term.

Discussion was held regarding holding a school wide celebration day to acknowledge the Blue award and to celebrate staff and students dedication to our commitment to our expectations of Be a Learner, Be Responsible, Be Respectful and Be Safe.
