Curriculum Resources

These early learning, primary and secondary curriculum resources help you build practical activities and lessons.

They promote reconciliation and develop children’s and students’ understanding of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories, cultures and contributions.

Each resource has elements of the Early Years Learning Framework and the Australian Curriculum, and aligns with Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) Actions. Use them as-is or adapt them to suit your local community and setting.
