It’s NAIDOC Week; a time to celebrate the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
This year's theme is Heal Country. When First Nations people talk about Country, it is spoken of like a person. Country is family, kin, law, lore, ceremony, traditions and language. It sustains Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples - spiritually, physically, emotionally, socially and culturally.
During NAIDOC Week, "healing Country" means to heal our nation by resolving many of the outstanding injustices which impact on the lives of First Nations people. In our region, we can participate in celebrations to learn more about Country and First Nations culture.
