NAIDOC Week is a celebration of the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Every year NAIDOC Week celebrations are centred on a theme. 

 

St Dominic’s College celebrated NAIDOC Week with a special assembly, which focused on this year’s theme ‘For our Elders’.

 

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders hold the stories that make up the oldest living culture in the world!

 

This year’s NAIDOC theme and education resources, ‘For Our Elders’, is an opportunity for all Australian schools to ensure our young people are learning from our Elders’ knowledge and perspectives, and that these continue to be passed down through generations for millennia to come.

 

St Dominic’s College would like to thank Mr Kayden Edwards, Indigenous Education Officer, who coordinated our NAIDOC Week celebrations.
