National Reconciliation Week (May 27-June3) allows all Australians to focus on and learn about our shared histories, cultures and achievements. It is also a time to explore how each of us can contribute to achieving reconciliation in Australia.
The dates are the same each year and commemorate TWO significant milestones in the journey of reconciliation. May 27 was the day of the 1967 referendum which had the highest YES vote in history. It sent a clear message to the Government of the desire for equality. June 3, 1992 saw the Australian High Court deliver the Mabo decision which acknowledged Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the Traditional Owners and Custodians of lands. This decision paved the way for the Native Title Act (1993).
Reconciliation must live in the hearts, minds and actions of all Australians to create a nation strengthened by respectful relationships.
Reconciliation Australia’s theme for 2021, “More than a word. Reconciliation takes action”, urges the reconciliation movement towards braver and more impactful action. Reconciliation is a journey for all Australians - as individuals, families, communities, organisations and importantly as a nation.

Year 11 and 12
Please be aware that Year 12 students are coming to the end of their coursework and their Trial exams begin Term 3, Week 3. Before this, many students have major works that are due that contribute to their final HSC. Similarly, Year 11 students are more than half way through their courses as their Preliminary Exam block occurs late Term 3. A practical way to support them is ensuring that they have a dedicated quiet time and space each evening to complete work and study.
