Blackfriars Priory School

At Blackfriars Priory School, we envision a future deeply rooted in reconciliation, where the spirit of unity, respect, and understanding of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, cultures and histories flourishes among all members of our community. Our commitment to the Narragunnawali Reconciliation Action Plan is an integral part of our journey towards creating an inclusive and just society for all.   We foster a culture of respect and acknowledgment for the Traditional Custodians of the Land on which our school stands. We recognise and honour the enduring connections Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have with the land, waters, and community.  Built on our Dominican Pillars of Prayer, Service, Community and Study, we commit to ongoing learning, reflection and action as we pursue Truth in our daily lives, providing culturally safe spaces and nurturing respectful relationships in our school for, and with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.  Ultimately reconciliation between non-Indigenous peoples and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples represents hope, a commitment to building a better future for all, where the wounds of the past are acknowledged, healed and transformed into a foundation of understanding, respect, and solidarity among all members of our community.
