Our Lady of Dolours Primary School

At Our Lady of Dolours Catholic Primary School, we acknowledge that First Nations peoples have a deep spiritual connection to Country. We are committed to reconciliation and healing through ongoing learning together with children, families, educators and community. We will continue to actively acknowledge the true histories and lived experiences of the First Peoples of Australia with respect, as we move together towards a harmonious and reconciled future.  Our vision for reconciliation is to deepen our knowledge, understanding of and respect for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples histories, cultures, perspectives and languages. We will continue to build meaningful and trusting relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and communities, including Turrbal and Yuggera Elders and community members. We will continue to instill, from an early age, the importance of reconciliation as a lifelong commitment.  As we come together through reconciliation, we commit to living, loving and learning through actively acknowledging the past and those who came before us and respecting the knowledge, perspectives and experiences of First Nations peoples.
