At Centenary State High School, reconciliation means that we actively recognise the successes and continued contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and the diversity of First Nations cultures, knowledges, histories, and traditions in shaping educational and wider outcomes. We also actively recognise the ongoing impacts of colonisation on First Nations peoples. We encourage and support all members of our school community to regularly engage in activities that promote a deeper understanding and respect for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples cultures, including facilitating experiences that highlight First Nations peoples histories, traditions and languages. Â Â Our school community believes that a commitment to reconciliation including acknowledging and celebrating First Nations peoples cultures and perspectives, will foster improved, equal and equitable well-being, educational and cultural outcomes for all students, families and community.
