Reconciliation in Action

St Paul Lutheran School 

Acknowledgement of Country

At St Paul Lutheran, we acknowledge all First Nations people within our school community. We offer our respects to the Kaurna people and their elders past, present, and emerging and recognise their deep relationships to the land. We recognise that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples are Australia's first storytellers, artists, communities and creators of culture. We appreciate the gum trees, lorikeets and magpies we see on the big park and in nature play and commit to caring for and respecting these lands, just as the Kaurna people have for generations. We promise to protect and nurture the environment, ensuring it remains a safe and welcoming space for all. Always was, always will be Aboriginal land.

Reconciliation in Action:

What is a RAP? 

A Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) is a formal commitment to reconciliation for schools or early learning services to strengthen relationships, respect, and opportunities within their communities. We recently shared with you the St Paul Vision for Reconciliation. 

St Paul Lutheran School has updated our RAP, which has now been approved and published online and can be found on the Narragunnawali website. Narragunnawali is a program of Reconciliation Australia. Reconciliation Australia is an independent, national not-for-profit organisation that promotes reconciliation by building stronger relationships, respect and trust between the wider Australian community and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. You can view our published RAP here: Narragunnawali - St Paul Lutheran School 

Here is a summary of the actions that St Paul Lutheran School has committed to.
