School Camp Na&onal Reconcilia&on Week Tomorrow is the last day of Na/onal Reconcilia/on Week 2022 which has been a /me for all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures, and achievements, and to explore how each of us can contribute to achieving reconcilia/on in Australia. The Na/onal Reconcilia/on Week 2022 theme, “Be Brave. Make Change” is a challenge to all Australians— individuals, families, communi/es, organisa/ons and government—to Be Brave and tackle the unfinished business of reconcilia/on so we can Make Change for the benefit of all Australians. As a community of learners we have con/nued to increase our knowledge and awareness during this week. This learning is maintained through ongoing interac/ons and experiences throughout the year.

Congratula/ons to the Year Six students and all the teachers who aXended the Year Six Camp at Woodman Point two weeks ago. Their /me was filled with learnings and challenges both individually and collec/vely. Camp is wonderful experience for all students as they learn new skills and develop a sense of autonomy and trust in their decisions. As lifelong learners the opportuni/es provided at Camp enable them to grow as individuals by allowing them to take risks, ‘have a go’, and share their gi]s and talents to help others. It was fantas/c to see the enthusiasm and excitement of all the Year Six students during my visits a]er school. It was also very rewarding to see that during Camp students were • developing their leadership skills, • building and developing new friendships, •building personal competences such as self iden/ty, self worth, self-esteem and self respect and •were also able to par/cipate in ac/vi/es that perhaps they had never experienced before Congratula/ons also to the staff - Mr Daniel Silla, Miss Melissa Myles, Miss Sandra McMullen, Mrs Lauren Jenkins, Miss Anna Piazzola and Mr Frank Colangelo for their fantas/c organisa/on and leadership in both the prepara/on prior to camp and their commitment and enthusiasm during every aspect of the three days.
