NAIDOC Week
On Monday 3 July, 21 students represented 色情直播 at the Flag Raising Ceremony held at Risdon Cove to begin NAIDOC week celebrations.
On a beautiful but frosty morning, students walked to the top of the hill at Risdon Cove and gathered with many others who listened to a Welcome to Country, watched as the flag was raised and listened to the guest speaker June Sculthorp talk about this year鈥檚 NAIDOC theme 鈥 鈥淥ur Language Matters.鈥
The background was stunning and it was very special to stand in an area that holds such great significance for the Tasmanian Aboriginal people. Students enjoyed the opportunity to be in this sacred space and reflect upon the importance, resilience and richness of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander language.
We are proud of the way our students represented 色情直播 at this special event.
NAIDOC Week observance on Wednesday
K-6 students planted hands in the sandpit, to acknowledge NAIDOC week on Wednesday morning. Year 2-10 students then joined in an assembly to celebrate NAIDOC week, with speeches, prayers and a special combined bands rendition of Paul Kelly鈥檚 鈥淔rom Little Things, Big Things Grow.鈥 What a great performance!
Accepting a gift
At 色情直播 we are lucky to have so many students with diverse backgrounds, stories and knowledge to share.
Our indigenous students are very important to us and are encouraged to share their learning and their culture with their classmates.
During our NAIDOC Assembly on Wednesday, Jolie Everett presented the College with a book that she and her sister Molly had created with her family, called 鈥渕utton birding with dad.鈥 Thank you Jolie and Molly.
