JUNE 2021

From the Principal

Dear Parents,

The Reconciliation theme for 2021 is ‘More than

a word. Reconciliation takes action’, this urges

the reconciliation movement towards braver

more impactful action. Reconciliation is a jour-

ney for all Australians – as individuals, families,

communities, organisations and importantly as a

nation. At the heart of this journey are relation-

ships between broader Australian community

and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peo-

ples. At Duri PS we work very hard to ensure we

have positive respectful relationships with our

Aboriginal and Torres Strait community.
