The Malkara School is committed to reconciliation through creating a future where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples' histories and cultures are taught, celebrated, and respected by all Australians.
At Malkara, we strive to address the two distinct needs and opportunities identified by the Australian Curriculum's Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Histories and Cultures Cross Curriculum Priority namely, that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students may see themselves, their identities and their cultures reflected in the curriculum, as well as, in their day - to - day school life. And that all students are provided with opportunities to respectfully engage in reconciliation to deepen their knowledge of Australia by learning about the world's oldest continuous living cultures. The staff at Malkara will work together as an inclusive, respectful community to ensure all voices are acknowledged as we continue to move towards reconciliation. At Malkara we will show this commitment by developing meaningful and respectful relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people connected with Malkara as well as with the community and Country on which we learn, work, play and grow. And meaningfully acknowledging and respectfully embedding Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people's histories and perspectives through the development of culturally safe teaching and learning environments.
