Balarang Public School

At Balarang Public School, we recognise that reconciliation is everyone's business and we value meaningful partnerships between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and non-Indigenous people. We are committed to creating and maintaining a learning community where respect, understanding, and celebration of the diversity of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and cultures are deeply embedded. We endeavour to respectfully share our learnings about Dharawal culture, histories, language and truth-telling through respectfully embedding this into our educational settings for all students, staff and families in a culturally safe environment. We recognise the historical and ongoing impacts of colonisation on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and commit to ensuring these wrongs are not repeated, through knowledge building, inclusion, equality, and equity, recognising the world's oldest living cultures. Our school fosters inclusive environments that respect the histories, cultures, and contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, empowering all students to walk together in unity with a shared responsibility for a reconciled and just future.
