At Preshil, our vision for reconciliation is to deepen our community’s learning, understanding and awareness of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories, cultures, and perspectives. We celebrate Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander knowledges as an influence on where we are today and are proud to 'be a part of' a place where there is such rich and unique expertise of generous First Nations Elders and community.
We appreciate the histories of our local area and will endeavour to build our perspective of how we 'fit in' to the timeline of this Land due to historical and current colonisation. We are grateful to be located on this Land and do not underestimate our responsibility to it.
Working towards a reconciled Australia means giving all children families and school staff the best, most honest information we can across the curriculum, and in everyday experiences. We wish to empower all children by giving them the ability to have an informed voice regarding reconciliation and what is important to them as capable and active community members.
