There are two flags representing the First Peoples of this country —one representing Aboriginal peoples, and one representing Torres Strait Islander peoples. Flying or displaying the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander flags at your school or early learning service shows respect for, and recognition of, First Nations peoples. 

Flying or displaying the flags also promotes a sense of community partnership and is a public commitment toward reconciliation. It is therefore important to talk with the local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community about how the flags should be flown or displayed at your school or early learning service.
