NATIONAL SORRY DAY 26TH MAY & NATIONAL RECONSILIATION WEEK 27TH MAY – 3RD JUNE
National Sorry Day, also known as the National Day of Healing, is held annually to commemorate the Stolen Generations. This day forms part of the ongoing efforts between Indigenous and Non-Indigenous Australians towards reconciliation.
National Reconciliation Week is widely celebrated by schools, workplaces, community organisations and individuals, and is a time for all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures, and achievements. The combined theme across these dates is ‘Now More Than Ever’, which encourages all Australians to be a voice for reconciliation.

This week, Wayi School will be acknowledging the significance of these dates, with students undertaking a variety of activities connected to our shared cultures.
