While our centre has Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture embedded into everyday practices and teaching, this week we have had a special focus. 

Children have been using their art and craft skills to make flags, paint boomerangs and create signs. 

Educators have participated by wearing indigenous themed tops and creating play spaces using aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander resources such as puzzles, books, dolls and cushions. 

As a country it is important to recognise our heritage and help pave the way to a future with better understanding and less prejudice.

"We acknowledge that we are gathered here today on the land of the Kaurna People. We would like to pay our respects to the elders who hold such a deep connection to this land, it's waterways and creatures, it's history and it's future."
