First Nations Action Group

The First Nations Committee is collective of students and staff dedicated to fostering cultural understanding and appreciation. Committed to reconciliation and honouring Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures, the committee organises various events throughout the school year, including Reconciliation Week, guest speaker sessions, and cultural workshops. These events aim to educate students and staff about the rich heritage of Australia's First Nations peoples while promoting respect and solidarity.

Aligned with the Victorian Curriculum's cross-curriculum priority of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories and cultures, the committee works with staff members to integrate First Nations perspectives across subjects, ensuring a holistic approach to education. Through initiatives like embedding First Nations perspectives in lesson plans, promoting literature by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander writers, and engaging students in projects related to First Nations issues, the committee fosters an inclusive and culturally responsive learning environment, nurturing students' understanding of Australia's diverse heritage and promoting reconciliation.
