Celebrating National Reconciliation Week at LNPS 2020
National Reconciliation Week is celebrated from the 27th of May until the 3rd of June.
Reconciliation is a journey for all Australians – as individuals, students, teachers, families, communities, organisations and as a nation. At the heart of this journey are relationships between the broader Australian community and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
By acknowledging and celebrating National reconciliation week we are striving towards a more just, equitable country by championing unity and mutual respect as we come together and connect with one another.
