Kaya everyone, here’s what we got up to in celebration of Reconciliation Week.
Our Dianella Education Precinct hosted the 2024 National Reconciliation Virtual Online Breakfast to start of National Reconciliation week. The event brought together students, staff, and community members to celebrate Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture in Australia and foster reconciliation.
Our appreciation and gratitude extend towards:
Councillor Andrea Creado, representing the City of Stirling, who shared her insights on acknowledging our heritage, honouring our traditional elders, and highlighting the city’s initiative for reconciliation.
The Warangka Dandjoo choir from Dianella Secondary College, along with performers from our school and virtual choir from Dianella Primary College, for their wonderful performance.
The staff and students from Dianella Secondary College for the full breakfast featuring native Australian ingredients.
The staff and students who have made this successful event possible.
Our esteemed guests for attending.
We also held morning assembly, where our Aboriginal and Islander Education Officer, Ms Voss, presented a speech to emphasise the importance of teaching the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture and building and positive relationships between indigenous and non-indigenous Australians to move towards the goal of reconciliation in Australia. She set an interactive scene, where our students closed their eyes and visualised what it was like for our elders.
As the weather cleared up and the sun came out, our school was able to continue the tradition, and held our Reconciliation Walk around our school grounds. We had our Student Councillors and Bushranger Representatives hold our Reconciliation Flag, made by our students and staff, and lead the walk.
After the walk, we held a sausage sizzle. The students enjoyed a hotdog and juice as we concluded the event.
