VISION FOR RECONCILIATION

Elisabeth Murdoch College's Vision for Reconciliation is:

  • the rich and thriving culture, knowledge and experience of our First Nations peoples are celebrated by the EMC community
  • every Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander student achieves their potential, succeeds in life, and feels strong in their cultural identity
  • the relationship and yet distinctions between ‘Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander education’ and ‘reconciliation in education’ is recognised, including a further focus on engaging all students, staff, and all members of the EMC community with the importance of reconciliation, and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, histories and cultures
  •  reconciliation in education, and meaningfully incorporating Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander content and perspectives into curricula, applies not just to subject specific areas in which ‘Indigenous studies’ is taught, but to all areas of study
  • to genuinely embed reconciliation actions into everyday practice, rather than reserving them for special events or as extracurricular activities
