Ya everyone! Last week, our school celebrated NAIDOC Week culminating in a wonderful Zoom assembly. Classes focussed on the NAIDOC 2021 theme ‘Heal Country’ in a variety of ways from caring for our beautiful Tasmanian country to looking after each other and considering different perspectives. Culture Club experienced the TMAG black box, Grade 3 took a trip to ningina tinapri at TMAG, classes wrote poems and students welcomed us in many languages from various Aboriginal nations around Australia.
