Smoking Ceremony

Welcome to Country and Smoking Ceremony

This week we invited artist Simone Thomson and her mother Aunty Zeta Thomson (Wurundjeri/Yorta Yorta) to perform a Welcome to Country and Smoking Ceremony at our school. It was amazing to learn more about the Indigenous culture of the land on which our school is sited. We learnt about Wurundjeri art, symbols, totems, and how to care for the natural environment. We are looking forward to showcasing our learning through our art projects later on in the term. Check out some of the photos from the day.
