Wakehurst Public School

Wakehurst Public School is committed to fostering a deep understanding of Australia’s true history, emphasizing the relationship between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and non-Indigenous Australians. Our vision for reconciliation is that all Australians live in a culturally rich nation, proud of the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

We are dedicated to embedding Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander perspectives across all areas of the curriculum, ensuring a culture of inclusivity where students, staff, and the wider community feel respected and valued. Our teachers strive to deliver culturally responsive education, empowering students with the tools to embody kindness, respect, and empathy.

Wakehurst Public School is committed to creating a culturally safe and welcoming environment by partnering with local Aboriginal Elders and community members. We meaningfully incorporate local Aboriginal knowledge into our school community, making First Nations' perspectives visible and relevant. By respecting the diverse nature of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures and histories, we aim to build strong, respectful relationships that support sustainable and meaningful reconciliation, ensuring an equitable future for all.
