Reconciliation SA in partnership with the Aboriginal Education and Employment unit of Department of Education and Children’s Services, Catholic Education SA, the Association of Independent Schools of SA and Dare to Lead have produced Education Packs. Citizenship: let’s talk recognition, 55,000 years and counting: celebrating our shared history, The Stolen Generations, The 1967 referendum and Forgotten Heroes.
The Education Packs are designed to be stand-alone teaching resources for early, primary and middle years.
Share Our Pride -This website gives you a glimpse of how life looks from an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Perspective. Topics covered include ‘Who are the First Australians?’ What special connections do we have to the land?’ Why does the past matter today? Why can’t we just put it all behind us? What are some of our strengths, joys and victories?
